This week Julie is sharing the A Pretty fix site and Pinterest boards. And some of their boards are "group boards" so, it seemed to me that everything I found was on one of the group boards haha. but, I kept coming back to this shot with all these clipboards arranged on the wall. And I had a while back cut some of these Tim Holtz Vault NoteWorthy Clipboard diecuts and I had dug it out earlier in the week thinking I could use it with the clean and simple challenge which this week is to highlight a diecut but, I knew If I built on it and layered it, it would not be clean or simple so, I set it aside and had to laugh when I seen that wall and thought why not. SO, the piece of paper on top of the clipboard is a pre-cut piece from a Kaiser craft pad.
And so I punched it out of the Sweet Nothings pad with my fingers and layered it to the clipboard which received a dusting of DOX Saltwater Taffy ink along the edges. Those mulberry flowers have faint Sheet music print on the petals and I have had them sitting in a little dish on the table for some time now and I though the colors were "close enough" So I wanted something lumpy to give it more of a collage look I think they were found at Hobby Lobby last Christmas? something like that. The printed paper behind the clipboard I don't remember who makes it anymore its from a really old pad that was disassembled and put into the pink hanging folder of such odds and ends. The base here is some PTI Sweet Blush and its A2 in real life. Those little tags were at the top of the clipboard are tied on with some Lawn Fawn hemp string. The heart tag is from the Trinity Stamps Bitty tags set and the other is from the Craft Addict UK mini birthday tag die set. The heart also received some Saltwater taffy along its edges. The Sentiment here is from the Waffle Flower Tulips stamp set done with some Versafine clair nocturn ink. because, its not flat there was a sliver of white showing on the edge of the top piece of paper. So I used a black pen to put some black there to blend it a little. I know I need to get the Mother's Day Cards I need to send out in the mail today and so, I don't really want to go stand in line to mail it so, I think keeping it mostly flat is going to be the plan for this year. That's about it from me, I hope you are doing well. If you'd like to play along with us you can
find this challenge here at SCS. Thanks for stopping by.
