It's Jennifer McGuire with a tips and tricks post using the new January County Fair Kit and add-ons. Today I want to share how to create chevron or zig-zag patterns from patterned papers. I show an easy way to make lots of borders for multiple projects.
I did a set of cards, but it could be great for scrapbook pages, too!
Supplies: January kits + add-ons, Fiskars premium cut line trimmer, Tombow stamp runner permanent adhesive (any adhesive works), cardstock, computer generated greetings, twine, glue dots, scissors
Hope you enjoy the video and the January kits!
thanks! love it.

Fabulous! I tried to do this the hard way - I like your way much better. (I am completely infatuated with chevron patterns too.)

Cool! Thanks for the tutorial. I've tried the Herringbone technique on SCS and this is a fun variation of that idea.
