I made a "Mother's Day Card" using paint chips. <br /><br />1)I just them into strips ranging from about a fifth of an inch, to a half inch wide. 2)I glued them down to a plain card, in a Parquet pattern. 3)Then I placed a decorative sticker in the middle of that pattern. 4)And last, I wrote a message on the inside of the card.<br /><br />It may have taken some time to finish, but it was very easy... Plus, my Mom really seemed to like it! :DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7556794318856646559.post-13311657267888934882012-07-13T08:53:17.524-05:002012-07-13T08:53:17.524-05:00Thanks so much, Jessica!

I'm using that frame for something e...Hi Chase,<br />I'm using that frame for something else now and I can't remember where I put the paint chip artwork, so I don't have exact measurements for you. But it was something like this.<br /><br />Cut the paint swatch into long strips, lengthwise. Make the strips as tall as you like, as long as they're all the same. This dimension will be the height of your triangles. So you'll end up with strips that are... maybe 1.5" or 2" tall?<br /><br />Then cut off a triangle to use as a template: with a pencil and ruler, on one edge of a strip mark off the width for your triangle. Maybe 1"?? Then on the opposite edge of the strip, mark the midpoint for the apex of the triangle. <br /><br />Cut out this triangle: Either draw pencil lines and cut along them carefully with a scissors, or use a ruler and Xacto knife.<br /><br />I used this first triangle as a template to draw other triangles on the paint strips and cut them out. (I probably used an X-acto knife and ruler for cutting.)<br /><br />Or, if you have trouble positioning the template piece to get uniform triangles, don't use it. Mark all the points with a pencil and ruler and cut using an Xacto knife run alongside a ruler, for perfectly straight edges.Jessica Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10111703670084066670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7556794318856646559.post-44837569318302936672012-07-13T08:21:45.497-05:002012-07-13T08:21:45.497-05:00I'm sorry, but I'm still trying to underst...I'm sorry, but I'm still trying to understand how you cut them.
