you can't keep a good girl down

Here are some more clipboards I've been working on:

This one is for Miss Ho - for the fashionista in you! The paper I used is by Imagination Project - their new collection called Fashionista. When I saw it, I just knew it was meant for you. :)



It's not yet done though. I've yet to put on the embellishments.

And this is for my mother (also not completed):



Two rather different styles, eh? One modern and sassy and the other one more vintagey.

Well, I can't seem to stay away from clipboards - they are so fun to alter! The mod podge part gets me all messy (that's not the fun bit) but altering clipboards really challenges me in terms of matching papers and coming up with interesting designs. It's not just sticking pieces of paper down - I plan each design right down to the colour of the ribbon that will end up on the clip.

Now, somehow, through a series of different people talking to me, I've been persuaded to make more clipboards for charity. My church, Trinity Christian Centre, is having a carnival on the 23rd of June. And I'm making more clipboards for sale. I've got a minimum of 15 clipboards to complete and I'm all set to go! I'll try to upload pics as I go along - if you like any you see, do head down to our bazaar and pick them up!

Oh, and on a side note, here's a new machine that I bought yesterday:



It's called the Zutter Bind-it-All. What it does is bind pieces of paper together. This means you'll be seeing a lot more altered notebooks, mini-albums and journals. I'll never have to buy another notebook again! (*ahem* - that's me trying to justify the cost of the machine...)
