Welcome to our fourth live class for International Scrapbook Day! In this hour, we will join Paige Evans for some fun patterned paper play!
During this live class, Paige Evans will use her new Crafted Moments collection with Pinkfresh Studio to piece together a repeating diamond-shaped background with pretty patterned papers! Please download the Diamond Template cut file shared below and have it printed and cut out for class. An optional splattering of mixed media paints creates an interesting initial layer, and a sprinkling of colorful buttons atop the diamonds creates some eye candy as the finishing element!

I don’t typically reach for patterned paper, but these classes today are prompting me to get out of my “comfort zone.”
florals
I love florals and stripes!
I really love florals and so many times the floral paper is what I begin with as inspiration. Then I add in the stripes or dots and solids to go with it.
Love all of Paige’s collections!
I love patterned paper. As I mostly scrapbook boys, I mostly use geometrics and nature inspired patterns.
I tend to lean towards stripes or geometrics, but I’ve started using more florals recently.
I’m always a sucker for stripes! 😍
I love florals and butterflies, so I reach out for those papers first. I love fussy cutting too so those papers are perfect.
I love geometrics the most, but I use all kinds of patterned paper.

Love all of the florals! Great for backgrounds and for fussing cutting!
