Okay, since other swaps have been cancelled, I felt maybe ya'll would have time for this.. and its PERFECTLY timed for Christmas!!! WOOT!
SOOOOO....
Go to your local biglots/ walmart/box store and grab one of those plain brown clipboards with the metal clip on it...
And alter it! Do GREAT work here ladies (and gents if ya''ll are out there) as these will be on DISPLAY in peoples homes... The most popular thing to do is make them into a calendar... decorate it and make calendar pages that can be removed and replaced every year...
If you need ideas, go to two peas and type in "clipboard" in the search in the peanut gallery.. there are HUNDREDS there to look at...
GO ALL OUT! You are only doing ONE so why not???
How?
take papers and design all the paper stuff you want on it and lay it out and have it measured the way you want... now put some modge podge down, put the papers on top and coat the entire thing with modge podge (don't do this with fibers or ribbons or flowers attached)... let it dry (might take a day or so depending upon humidity, I recommend the matte modge podge). Now adhere all your other stuff using pop dots, or e6000 glue or anything with a GOOD hold (remember these will be HUNG on a wall so not flat, make sure stuff says.. I recommend the E6000 myself)...
How to sign up?
Email me at duckwaterATgmailDOTcom and tell me you want to be a part... give me the following information:
Name, Nickname on group Address Email Favorite colors/themes Theme you want to do YOUR clipboard in.
I will then match what color/theme you want to do yours in with someone who wants that theme (this way moms of all boys don't get pink princess themes). I'll email you with thier address and you will sent it to them directly priority mail with confirmation.
All packages are to be sent out by Nov. 15th. (that gives you TWO MONTHS)
SOUND GOOD??
Let's get creating!!!!
(you CAN do more than one, just let me know the themes of them all and how many)
