Going Geometric!

 Hello again!

Have you seen the new challenge over at Kraft + yet? The challenge is to Go Geometric! Well that one got me thinking.  Here's what I made:

I had a clear idea of what I wanted to make and the triangles came out pretty much as planned. I happened to find the stencil though when I was looking for something to put on the background and it was so perfect for the geometric challenge that I couldn't resist it. 

I knew this design would be great for using up paper scraps so I raided my leftovers drawers. Some of the paper is really old but I jazzed the page up by adding some very recent geli prints and stitching. I had it in my head that I wanted blanket stitching on the large red triangle. I contemplated doing it by hand for about 3 seconds then I did it on the machine! As usual, I did lots of messy stitching too.

I kept the leftover paper scraps theme going by making a flower out of coordinating scraps. I love how it turned out. I almost finished off a packet of Heidi Swapp stickers on this but couldn't quite do it. I never seem to finish packs of anything!

I sure hope you can join us this month. You can find the challenge here.

Happy scrappin'!
