The instructions posted here are for this altered corkboard.
The first step is to cut a piece of matboard (or thick cardstock…I use the cardboard piece that comes with the designer paper) and a piece of flowers for you designer series paper to 8" x 8". Adher the designer paper to the matboard.
The next step is to cut your corkboard to 6" x 6". Cut two pieces of coordinating ribbon to 12". I used regal rose and tempting turquoise grosgrain ribbon. Wrap them around the cork and adher the ends to the back using a piece of tape.
Center and adher the corkboard to the decorated matboard.
The final step is to attach your ribbon to hang your corkboard. Cut a piece of coordinating ribbon to 12".
We will need to punch two holes in the corkboard. Measure about 1/2" down from the top and 2" in from each end and using your 1/8" punch, punch the holes. Thread the ends of the ribbon (one through each hole and tie a knot.
Your finished!
Now, on to make the marble thumbtacks….
- Punch out several circles using your 1" circle punch. You’ll need one for each marble.
- Put a drop of crystal effects glue on the punched circles with the RIGHT SIDE FACING UP.
- Adher the marble to the punched circle. You’ll need to let this dry for about an hour.
- Once dry turn the marble over and put a drop of crystal effects on the back of the marble.
- Adher your thumbtack just as you adhered the marble in step 2. Let dry.
- Arrange on corkboard
