Today I'm sharing a layout created for the American Crafts July gallery. For my page I decided to revisit a technique I've used before, and will undoubtedly use again...paper weaving! And just in time, as my vase of tear strips was stuffed to overflowing! Here's a peek at the backside of my woven mat, showing strips from the Cut & Paste, Polka Dot Party, and Plus One collections.
Here's the right side, all blues, greens, with a touch of brown and yellow:
As you can see by the finished layout, the only patterned paper besides the tear strips is a small rectangle of a yellow floral placed behind the photo:
A long title afforded me the opportunity to use several different packs of Thickers:
I love using a variety of fonts in my title. I don't know what I'd do without Thickers!
What do you do with the tear strips that you trim from patterned paper? I still have a couple of fists full in that vase of mine.

I love the paper weaving!
Fun page :)
Love this, Madeline! I have tons of these in my desk drawer.
Always love how the weaving looks! Love the patterns.
Impressive effect that has, and kudos on using the last bit of those papers!
