Lead the Way

I'm only a few pages away from finishing my cruise album, but I've moved over to my 2021 album for this page which I made for Twilight Crafts and Jenny Wren Cut-Files.

Twilight Crafts' 
challenge this month (in their Facebook group) is to create your own patterned paper so I've combined that with my second DT page for January. I started from a sheet of white cardstock and applied three colours of distress oxide inks through a hexagon stencil. Then I took the Triangle Arrows Background cut-file, shrunk it and welded three together to give me a piece around 5" x 10" which I cut from green cardstock.


I kept the rest of the page quite simple as I didn't want to distract from either the background or the cut-file. I matted two 4x6 photos on the same green cardstock and added a small cluster of stickers to the empty space in the top one. Then I decided to emphasise the triangles by adding enamel shapes to them, and finished off with a spattering of gold paint.


I'm also linking up this page with two other challenges - one to use triangles from Lottie Loves Paper and a tic-tac-toe from Hey Little Magpie where I chose the line of paint, triangles and 2+ photos.
