F4A80 - Crossing Strips - 09/02/11
Challenge today:
criss-cross different patterns/textures to enhance your background.
Wendy wants us to “cut out some paper strips and cross ‘em up!!! (Better yet??? Use up some of your strip SCRAPS!!! I KNOW you have ‘em!!). “
How does she know that I have them? Can she see into my scrapping room?
I use strips of Spellbinders borders that I cut for a different project that I could not get to work. In the meantime had all those dog gone white border strips! The green strip is from a project two years ago. I just love the frog K&C dp. I did not crisscross but added a strip cuttlebug ef border on the left.
