On Board Bird Book

Three On Board (chipboard) Books appear for the first time in the current 2010 Occasions Mini Catalog:  Heart, Scallop Circle and Bird Book.  The Heart and Scallop Circle are about 6" in diameter and the bird book is 8 1/4" x 3 3/8" which makes them a great size for a mini album, keepsake or altering.  They appear on pg. 34 of the mini catalog and are only $4.95 for a set of eight with a ball chain included!  What a great buy!  And you can use them all together for a mini scrapbook, or use them singly for other purposes such as banners, wreaths, home decor, chair hangers for teas or luncheons and no telling what YOUR creativity can come up with.


Today I've used the bird chipboard to make a door knob hanger.  First I covered it with the beautiful pink with butterflies paper from the Sweet Pea Designer Paper Pack using my Stampin' Up! Glue Stick; then I sanded the edges.  A length of luscious silky Chocolate Chip Satin Ribbon runs through the pre-punched hole and ties to form a hanger for a door, shelf or wall.

Several of the delightful Sweet Pea Stitched Felt embellishments encircle the bird's neck and a couple of extra butterflies die cut from Barely Banana cardstock with the Big Shot and the Beautiful Wings Embosslit add to the butterfly images of the designer paper.  There, done!  And easy to boot!


Paper:  Sweet Pea Designer Series Paper Pack  (2010 Occasions Mini Catalog); Barely Banana cardstock
Accessories:  Glue Stick, Chocolate Chip Satin Ribbon, Sweet Pea Stitched Felt, Beautiful Wings Embosslit, Big Shot, Mini Glue Dots

I hope you'll try some of the great chipboard that Stampin' Up! carries; it is really fun and easy to use and make some
