Kelly shows us how to create a custom background by weaving strips of paper.  Kelly chose paper colours that complimented her photos. Because of the patterned paper in the strips, it works best on a plain background. She decided her photos would sit angled to show off a little more of the woven paper behind. Bright coloured woven paper would look amazing on a black or dark background.

  1. Great day of virtual crop! Just three of us in attendance but over 40 finished pages! A very successful day! “Make and take” was a “throw back” page spread using the always wonderful wonderful Vintage Paper pack and embellishments.
