Handcut Chevron

I saw a tutorial on Splitcoast Stampers on how to make your own chevrons. I cut strips of my Kaiser Craft English Rose Paper and showed my friends Shirley and Diane how to make one and we took them home to finish cutting them out and create with.  I used my new A Muse flower die cut, crinkled up the flowers and leaves, stamped  and fussy cut one of  Darcie's heart & home stamps, knotted and stained some tulle from Archiver's with an ink pad to co-ordinate and have a birthday card ready to go for a May co-workers birthday at work.  Oops, better work on my April birthday cards.  This made a nice 5x7 to fit all the group signatures at work and May is the next one.

    Love It- I'm going to make mine up today - loved how this turned out and they are so much fun to make - I think I may use this technique for my AMuse swap I signed up for. Thanks for a fun day, good friends, good lunch, great stamping. My favorite way to spend a day.
