Point Toward New Possibilities: Arrow Borders for Scrapbooking and DIY Travel Scrapbook Card

Posted on February 8, 2022February 7, 2022 by Karyn McDermaid-Rolfe

Chevrons are a design classic, but did you know this V-shaped motif can trace its roots back to ancient Greek pottery carvings?

Of course, we also see chevrons in modern-day home decor, fabrics and even to indicate traffic flow and direction on road signs. On that latter instance of road and travel, let’s go with the flow and point toward these arrow borders for scrapbooking and a DIY travel scrapbook card featuring the Chevron Arrows Border Maker Cartridge!
