Altered Clipboards

Hello!  So did everyone enjoy the post by Cheryl?  Wow, it has definitely been a while! 

Today I have a couple of clipboards to share over at All That Scraps Anything But a Card Day.  On one of my trips to our local Ben Franklin store, I saw these cardboard clipboards.  They were smaller in size than usual, about 7 in by 9.5 in.  But the best part was that they were only a $1 each!!!  I didn't know what to make with them at first besides just altering them but then I saw a roll of self-adhesive white board paper which was also on sale and then I had an idea.

I thought it would be cute to add the white board paper to the clipboard and it can be hung up somewhere.  The hardest thing was trying to cut out the paper nicely around that clip.  So once I did it close enough I traced it onto scratch paper so I could use it again as a template.  I also wrapped the edge of the clipboard with washi tape.

This is Fairy Abigail.  She is so pretty!  I did something a bit different with her wings.  I stamped them onto vellum and cut them out and glued just the edge by her hair.  I added some stickles and liked that transparent look.  The sentiment is from Butterfly Labels.  Mostly I am proud that I used some of these flowers and pearls and rhinestones!  I've had these a while.

This is the second one I made using some cute Doodlebug cardstock and the new stamps from CC Designs called The Tumbleweeds.  This cutie is from Butterfly Dreams.  The butterfly die cut is also CC Designs Butterfly Border die.

Here's a close up.  I like her as a blonde too.

It's Spring Break for my boys this week but I seem to have caught a cold or something.  Funny thing is that my kids aren't sick.  I caught something all on my own.  My nose gets stuffy every time I sit for too long so I'm trying to stand up every so often.

Alrighty, thanks for visiting today!

All That Scraps March Review

Hello!  Hope everyone's having a wonderful week!  I have a cute set of cards to share today.  They are a new line of stamps from CC Designs called The Tumbleweeds.  I love how happy and cute these little girls look.

Aren't they cute?  I really couldn't decide which one to color up first so I just chose them all.  I paired each of the girls with a sentiment from Amy R Winged Greetings.  The sentiment was heat embossed in white.  The butterfly is included with the set.

All the papers are from Doodlebug's Flowerbox. 

I think this girl is my favorite. 

I love that she's chasing that butterfly.

Hope you'll have a chance to check out the rest of the review over at All That Scraps blog.

I had a chance the other week to get my hair cut finally.  It was so relaxing!  I love when my hair stylist shampoos my hair and then some assistant comes over and massages my hands.  I could totally fall asleep there.  But I am not that into the shoulder massages.  It's actually kind of sore to me and sometimes makes me giggle too.  But after the appointment it's back to the reality of cooking and cleaning.  It's like an endless cycle of chores. 

Oh, I also finally watched the first couple of episodes of Once Upon a Time.  I need more shows to watch while on the elliptical.  Anything else good to watch these days?

Thanks for reading!
