Chevrons and Green at The Twinery!

Hi Everyone, today I have a fun layout for the Twinery's Green and Chevron Challenge!

 

 

As soon as I saw the challenge, I knew I was going to use this silly "selfy" picture of my daughter and me.   It's amazing how she doesn't mind taking pictures like this, but if I pull out my Canon, forget it!

I decided to go with a monochromatic look.  Bella Blvd had a lot of green/white papers with chevrons, perfect for the challenge! I created dimension by cutting out shamrock shapes from my background paper and backing them with a coordinating paper. To make them pop a bit more, I outlined them with some Honeydew Twine from The Twinery.

 

I cut additional shamrocks from another coordinating paper, folding them to give them some shape and added them to the layout.  I like how everything pops off the page!

 

 

To make my picture stand out on the patterned background, I spread some white paint as a backdrop and added some painted lines using a tutorial I found on Evalicious' blog.  And of course, I had to use my green chevron camera flair pin from Evalicious!

 

 

A little more Honeydew Twine around my picture and some green washi tape complete the look!
