Fall-to Layout #6

In keeping with the colour blocking theme, I thought this sketch would be a good one for this week! This design works well with plain cardstock, stamped cardstock, or patterned paper. If you're wondering about measurements. I made each square about 1-1/8, then I placed the middle one first, and lined up the rest. The two on the ends went over the side just a bit, so I trimmed it. Also due to the awkward size of each square and my less than precise cutter, I decided to add a border. This adds nicely to the design and hides the fact that one of my squares was a bit too small. I like to round the corners of this design. I find it completes the card nicely. This design is great for mass producing (if you have a more precise cutter) and also for using up those awkward sized scraps that we all feel compelled to keep!

On my card I went with the colour challenge from last week at SCS. I stamped some polka dots over top, added my border, and a greeting. That's it!
