CLASS DIRECTIONS RIGHT HERE*******************
pre-homework get the pictures you want printed
/gallery_viewer/120832
Step 1: Decide which paper you would like to use as your background paper for your clipboard, then trace the shape of the clipboard
on the BACK of your patterned paper {this is so you will not see the pen marks on your patterned paper}
Step 2. Cover the top portion of your clipboard with mod podge or heavy glue of your choice and wrap your LARGE ribbon around the top off the clipboard. HINT: start in the back,
wrap around to the front, then take the ends and wrap them over the top and glue down the ends to the back of the board.
Step 3: Choose which pictures you would like to use {this is optional} and then mat them with a corresponding cardstock I also decided to use photo
corners so I could change out the photos later if I wanted too
Step 4: Then I just decorated with some ribbon, stickers, flowers and brads I also decorated the actual CLIP part of the clipboard with
the small matching ribbon. I just tied it around the clip!
Step 5: Mod podge the clipboard AND back of your paper, then put the paper on the clipboard and gently push down until it feels secure.
It will take a little while to dry but then will be good to go! You can also mod podge the whole FRONT of your patterened paper with all
designs on it, if you want to protect them! This is totally OPTIONAL and you can just HANG your paper on your clipboard and then change it later
with another design~
