Triangles - Three Sides to Every Layout

Equilateral, Isosceles, Scalene - no, we're not giving a geometry lesson here!  We are talking about one of the hottest new trends showing up on scrapbook pages everywhere.  What are they?  Triangles, of course!  Take a look below to see what our Practical Scrappers are doing with these geometric gems:

 

 

Practical Scrapper Mary Pat used a Triangle background to her layout.

Practical Scrapper Wendi Robinson cut out triangles and made a quilt like pattern with added stitching for a focal point on the page

 

Practical Scrapper Malika Kelly used little triangles to point to her title.

Practical Scrapper Danielle de Konink used papers with a triangle pattern and also used a triangle mask on this layout.

 

Practical Scrapper Krissy Clark McKee used the leftover triangle scraps from her handmade arrows to create a small border at the bottom of her layout.

 

On Trend- Triangles

We've seen recent trends in papercrafting using circles, squares and hexagons, it's only natural that geometry has led us to triangles. They started appearing in arrows and banners as pennants, now triangles are all over the page. Don't believe me? check out these great pages by our designers:

Practical Scrapper Audrey Yeager created a triangle starbust pattern in her die cutting software (SCAL2) and then cut the design out of white cardstock and backed with patterned paper.

Practical Scrapper Danielle de Konink made herself a triangle mask with the Silhouette Cameo and misted the background. She also used triangle wood veneer shapes and washi tape with a triangle pattern.

 

Practical Scrapper Kylie used triangular chipboard banners by Teresa Collins and rotated them around various points on her page.  based on a STUCK sketch by Sara Noendeng.

Practical Scrapper Wendi Robinson used triangles to create a pattern running down the page and then overlapped triangles to create an arrow directing viewers to her photo.

 

Practical Scrapper Malika Kelly
used triangles as the mat for her pictures as well as to direct attention to her photos.

 

Practical Scrapper Mary Pat Siehl made triangles to create an arrow.  

  Practical Scrapper Caz used triangular wooden veneers to make sun rays behind her picture.

 

Happy Monday!
