Use It Tuesday - Paper Scraps and the Pennant punch

I recently saw this fun mosaic piece of art on How About Orange. (Click to see the entire post, including a tutorial.)  The triangular pieces of paint chips she used made me think of our Petite Pennant Builder punch and the ever-present scraps of card stock that most of us have hanging around.

I'm still in summer slow-mo, so making a framed piece like this will have to wait. But for now, it was certainly easy enough to try it on a smaller "canvas":

Now you could go larger and fill a frame, much like she did. Or perhaps create a background for a scrapbook page? How ambitious are you today?

Thanks for stopping by!
