Fire Mountain: Studio Challenges June Triangle Challenge

The challenge for this month over on The Studio Challenges blogwas to use triangles. I found this a challenge as I've never used triangles on a layout as I wasn't really sure how to use them. I have nothing against triangles and think they look good one layouts, unlike the hexagon trend which I never really got. I probably cheated a little on the challenge as rather than using triangles as a shaped element on my layout I opted instead to use a piece of triangle patterned paper!

I challenged myself further by using fabric on my page. I have a few pieces of material from past kits or I'd brought to use on a layout but then had no idea how to make it work. This star piece came from a Quirky Kit and I thought it would look great with both the black card and the photo. The photo by the way is of one of the famous sunsets over the mountains at Shell Island. Looking at the layout now I probably could have used less fabric and more triangle paper but never mind.
