Victoria's Strip Please challenge for HYCCT was to use strips of paper behind the focal image. I chose to use the Herringbone Technique - plenty of strips there and a great way of using up paper scraps.
A2 card, papers are all Basic Grey What's Up. The image is from dragonflybuzz, stamped on watercolour paper and coloured with distress inks. Sentiment from Pocket Silhouettes. The image panel is popped up on foam.
Love your technique with the paper strips. Looks like you put in a lot of time and thought into your card. Nicely done.

Very pretty quilt & card! I would not have thought to put those papers together but like most quilts I'm in awe as to how beautiful they look as a finished piece!
