If you aren't familiar with Kiwi Lane, they are plastic templates that
help simplify the scrapbooking process. I chose to use the Tiny Accents
templates. They are perfect for card making as well as scrapbooking. The best part is how portable they are. They fit on a ring and you can keep them compactly in your crop bag.
I was inspired to use the starburst shape for this page. I traced two rows of three and then cut the shapes out of my base paper with an exact-o knife. Amazingly, I had coordinating glitter paper in my stash that matched the ombre tones in the background paper and everything came together after that.
