Kid Clipboard
I should be going to bed, but I was just dying to play with some of my new stuff from Stampin’ Up! that came yesterday.
I bought one of the triple clipboards since it’s a unique shape and I have three kids (it was made just for me!). I knew that I wanted to use the new Outlaw paper, some new ribbons, the Pretties kit and chipboard shapes…and here is what I came up with:
I just LOVE this new paper series! I used Sage Shadow ink directly on the clipboard to add some color and other colors directly on the chipboard pieces.
I also tried dying the Pretties Kit flowers with Stampin’ Pastels for the first time – very easy to do with just a Q-tip.
And…am I the only one who has trouble getting the darned glue dots off the roll and onto chipboard? Half the time (maybe even more than half the time) the back of the chipboard comes off with the dot.
Okay – it’s *way* past my bedtime – time to turn in. Even Daisy is barking at the bottom of the steps to go to bed…
Kathy,
Love the clipboard. There are so many ideas that could be incorporated into this clipboard. I’m thinking Halloween!!! Keep those ideas coming.
I too want to decorate the trip clipboard for my granddaughter. How do you get paper UNDER the clips. They are pictured in the SU catty but I can’t figure out how to get the paper under the firmly attached clips. Any ideas??
I didn’t actually put paper under the entire clip – just the part that lifts up. I inked around the clips, but then cut the paper only to fit under them as far as it would go. I just think it would be so difficult to try to cut a template or to try to remove them. And I don’t think it turned out that bad. 🙂
Thanks for looking!
Kathy
