Color and shape

Hey everyone. Today is my day to post on the Fantabulous Cricut Challenge blog. Today the challenge is to use a triangle and the color yellow.


I found this great seahorse cut on the Art Nouveau cartridge and decided to use it as it form a natural triangle. It was cut at 4" using a variety of solid color papers from my stash (most were scraps). I cut the triangle by measure and marking where it would fit under the shape. I decided to round the corners of the triangle to give it a bit more of a subtle shape. The background patterned paper is from a Martha Stewart pad I got several years ago. There are Stickles on the seahorse and seaweed. The pearls and bubbles are stash items and the flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts. 

I like the way it turned out, but it may have been better to put another solid mat behind the patterned paper. I'm not sure, what do you think?
