Cut Files by Allison | Grass Background

Most of the time I use white cardstock for cut file designs, but I loved the idea of using green for this one, for obvious reasons.

Then I added a different green patterned paper to back each section of grass. I used a variety of different shades to match the different shades of green in the grass in the photos.

To add some texture and dimension to the design I also added green stitching along the die cut design. This also really helped that grass design stand out since it's green on green. The dimension really highlights the shape of the grass details.
