Altered Chipboard


So I've had this clipboard from Stampin' Up sitting around for a while (ok, like a year) and just got the inspiration to use it from this precious photo of Owen and some new Stampin' Up paper! It is super easy to create! I used whisper white craft ink for the top half and covered the lower half with the new Bella Rose DSP (designer series paper). Then I added some chocolate chip 5/8" grosgrain ribbon. I also used the "perfect" stamp from the "Define Your Life" set and a chipboard letter "P" next to it. The finishing touch is the beautiful hat pin adorned with crystals and pearls I stuck through the ribbon. This comes in the "Pretties Kit". The great thing about these clipboards is that you can switch out the photo as you'd like! It's also nice that they come in three different sizes, I'll definately be using them again (sooner than later)! Thanks for looking!
