Yesterday my tutorial for chevron backgrounds went up at October Afternoon. I’m not a very technique-y scrapbooker… so I find it hard to come up with things that are worthy of a step-by-step tutorial. But for a while now I’ve wanted to do a chevron background.

I wanted it to be subtle though… no bright crazy chevron over here (although I did just finish a chevron-inspired page with bright colors for a guest post…) so I chose a monochromatic color scheme.
