“I rarely attempt painting on my pages,
but I was delighted the Stickles required
little effort to transform simple chipboard
accents into glittery delights.”
—Shannon Zickel

Though Shannon used many
elements in a small amount
of space, the clean open area
around her collage keeps the
design from feeling too busy.
Shannon cut strips from all
three papers and haphazardly
pieced them back together as
the base of her design.
The die-cut arrows
add color and
lead the eye to
Shannon’s photos.
Make a color photo stand out
by surrounding it with smaller
black-and-white shots.
