This video will give you a great idea for making quick and easy chevrons to decorate your pages. Watch, learn, then make your own chevrons.

Video Notes To use this technique, you will need:

A diagonally striped digital paper
A horizontally or vertically striped digital paper

Starting with a blank page, go to the Insert ribbon > Shape > Rectangle In Operations panel:

Change size to fill your page completely (12 x 12, 11 x 8.5, etc.)
Remove stroke (fill does not matter)
Create

Position shape at 0 and 0 (x and y axis on QAT - Quick Access Toolbar) Cut ribbon > Grid:

8 segments across
1 segment down
0 spacing
Click OK

With all resulting strips selected, go to the Content panel:

Click the drop down menu on the diagonal striped paper you chose earlier
Fill selected shape
Each shape should now be filled with the same portion of the paper

Hold the shift key and deselect every other strip. Arrange ribbon > Rotate > Flip horizontally Voila! Now let's try the horizontal or vertical striped paper, starting with eight empty strips: With one strip selected, choose your paper in the Content panel and fill selected shape:

When the cutting board opens, rotate the shape diagonally (you may need to scroll down to see the green rotate handle at the top of the shape)
The selected element will fill with diagonal stripes

With the filled strip selected:

Right click > copy
Hold shift key and select all eight strips
Go to the Quick Access Toolbar > Fill > paste
Hold shift key and deselect every other strip
Arrange ribbon > rotate > flip horizontally

Easy peasy! Now add photos, title, journaling, and embellish as desired.
