Chevron Fun with CASology

Happy Tuesday from CASology! Let's have some fun with a pattern
that just won't quit! It's so flexible and graphic that it shows up
on cards, fabric, home decor...you name it.
This week's cue card is: CHEVRON!



I used the Die-namics Chevron Stripes die to cut a mask. Starting with Twisted Citron DI and working my way inward, lifting and moving the mask, I sponged on Mustard Seed and Pumice Stone DI. The butterfly is from Hero Arts (Butterflies Coordinating Stamp and Die Set) and I added some color using my Copics.

Butterflies remind me of whimsy and dreams, so I think this sentiment is perfect. It's time to see how the other DT members used chevrons in their designs...and I'll tell you it's an awesome mix of inspiration this week!

  4. Very unique. I wouldn't have thought to use the pumice stone color with the other two brights, but it gives it great dimension. Super attractive!
