Monday Challenge – Decorate Chipboard – by Caroline Scattergood

by Clare

This weeks challenge is to decorate some chipboard and I did some heat embossing with UTEE on a chipboard heart…

Products used:

How to:

Trim a piece of white card to fit the card blank.
Using the Texture Plate emboss the card and attach to the card blank. I sewed it into place. Its a little difficult to see in the photo but I used a flowery Texture Plate.
Sew the ribbon across the card, pleating as you go. Cut the ends with sharp Scissors so they slightly overlap the card.

Heat emboss the chipboard heart with UTEE. As the heart was white lined chipboard I only needed to apply one coat of a pearlescent clear powder.
Attach this to the card. Add the flower.
Punch out the little butterfly with the Lever Punch using white vellum and stick to the heart. Add a little black gem to the middle of the butterfly.
Add rub-ons. The black swirls and yellow sunburst at the side of the heart are rub-ons.

Enjoy the challenge!
