Faux Chevron, Square Punchin'

I love the idea of

faking a technique,

especially when I don't have the 

die or tool that I have in mind.

Today I'm going show you

a simple way to make quilted

looking chevrons with patterned

paper and a square punch.

My project puts to use

Paper Made Bakery's

November Kit

Christmas Treats:

Here's the card...

It looks waaaaaaay more

complicated than it really is.

Be sure to scroll down to

the Tiny Tutorial to get the idea.

Aren't the wooden snowflakes in the kit the cutest?!

There are even little 1/2 rhinestones in there. Perfect.

I used a 1 1/4" square punch, four different patterns of paper,

red and green card stock.

We are expecting snow here in Salt Lake City.

I'm going to go snuggle under a blanket.... :)
