Today's sketch is a very basic design that can be taken in many directions. It features two bold diagonal lines that divide the canvas (card, layout, etc.) into four uneven quadrants:
I (Vivian) created a 4.25" x 5.5" card-sized Silhouette cut file to accompany the sketch, which you can download here: Download Diagonal Lines Card Cut File
I chose four different patterned papers from the Silent Night and Daily Flash Eggnog collections and ran each through my Silhouette with the cut file. I took all sixteen pieces and arranged and rearranged them until I was happy with the way the patterns mixed. I glued each to a card base and embellished. It was fun to take this design in four different directions!
1. Clean and Graphic
2. Elegant
3. Cute
4. Festive
