A Little Happy



I hope you're having a good Friday!

I wanted to play along with Unity's Friends with Flair and the Moxie Fab World Tuesday Trigger:


So cool! The lines of triangles and the general color scheme inspired me. Here's what I came up with:

A Little Happy



I started off with one of Erica Hernandez's digital triangle template. I re-sized some different papers from Adrienne Looman Baers Garten and clipped them to the rows of triangles.

Then, I reprinted the image a second time to cut out the triangles. I layered the triangles on top of the template, stitched through them, and lifted the edges. Here's a close-up:

A Little Happy Close-Up


Finally, I stamped the Unity sentiment using my new Stampin' Up ink pad (thanks, Erin Lee!). I love this sentiment. :)

Thanks for looking. Have a wonderful weekend.
