It's one of those designs that I will use over and over again! For this particular layout I started with layering two patterned paper stars together to serve as the base for the design. Then I cut several small angled pieces out a variety of different colors and patterns. Those angled pieces are then arranged in three rows across the star base creating a kind of chevron-style pattern.
