You Are Awesome Layout for Paige's Pages 17

Here is the third layout from Paige's Pages 17 at Big Picture Classes!

On this layout I shared how to create origami stars. I saw a tutorial on YouTube last holiday season and made some myself using scrapbook paper and I’ve been hooked ever since! Once you create one, I can almost guarantee you’ll want to make lots more :)

Because patterned paper is pretty thick, the smallest I would try cutting paper to is 5” square. I’ve made them up to 8” big, but you could feasibly make them from an entire 12x12 piece of paper! How cool would that be?! I’m having visions of these stars dangling from the windows and ceilings for Christmas… Definitely need to try that!

Tips: My sewing machine went through the thick stars no problem, just keep your foot steady on the pedal and keep the layout turning in a circle as you go. If you have more journaling to add then just a sentence or two, consider writing it all around the stars, on the layout edges, or filling in the entire middle section.
