Hi, it's Therese and I am so happy to share an idea today to create a custom chevron background.
The new Simple Shapes XL stamp set is perfect for this and the possiblities are endless. Create bespoke backgrounds in the colours that suit your project!
Then I colored the fox image from Hug Me and die cut it with the coordinating dies. I also die cut the largest heart from the Halftone Hearts Nesting Die set from the chevron panel and added some clouds to create the scene.
I die cut Dark Gray Cardstock for my sentiment which was from Script Words 2. Birthday came from Birthday Greetings stamp set and I popped this up over the die cut sentiment.
I have linked a video below. So you can watch the process to see how it all came together.
