Comfort and Joy layout 5 CTMH

This is the 5th and final layout using the Close to My Heart Comfort and Joy paper packet, 2 of them,  and coordinating cardstock. I love this triangle design and it much easier than it looks.  

To make the triangle part of this layout it requires one piece of cardstock and one B&T design paper.  The photo mats are some B&T paper and the joy title was cut from a die that I had.

To make the triangle layout you do the following.

1. Cut a 12 x 12 piece of design paper into four 6 x 6 inch squares.

2.  Cut the 6 x 6 inch squares into triangle, by lining up the points.

3.  Cut the triangles you just made into 2 smaller triangles.

4.  Repeat for all the 6 x 6 inch squares.

5. Now attach the triangles to the cardstock alternating the designs, ONLY put adhesive on the LONG SIDE as you will be bending these later,. Keep doing this until you use all the triangles.

6.  Now take the point of each triangle and bend to match to the bottom of the triangle.  You want the points to line up.  I use a bone folder to give a crisper line.

7.  I use some adhesive on the back side of the folded point to make it lie flatter.

8.  Once all triangles are folded and the tips adhered.  I then turn over the paper and draw a diagonal line and then I cut on that line.

9.  I then put each half of the triangle design on cardstock base pages and add my photo mats and journal spot.  I used two 4 x 6, and two 4 x 4 photo mats.
