Herringbone Technique.

Hello Again...

Have you seen the tutorials for the herringbone technique? It's all over Pinterest. It's really a useful way to use up those strips from your B&T pages, or any scraps you have that are about a 1/4 wide.

The best tutorial I have seen thus far is by Gina K. she calls it the Scrappy background.

Here's my card:

I used the Fast and Furious stamp set for the card and selected a happy father's day sentiment.
