My believe chip board phrase



 What I used.
1. Hobby Lobby believe chip board
2. Teal paint for around edges and paint brush
3. Regular card stock  with teal snow flakes
4. Glue, Hot glue
5. Cricut machine to cut 3" sleigh, 2" reindeer, Santa
6. Red, Green and Silver mirror poster board. (Hobby Lobby)
7. Snow Tex

 Sleigh is cut from the red, green and silver poster board. the words snow on the bottom are from the silver also. ho ho ho is from the red.
Red and Green Stickles are used for the reindeer collars.

 I used hot glue to glue all the pieces along the top of the phrase.

 The chimney I cut out myself and used pen to create the bricks. I wanted it to fit on top of the letter b perfectly.
 I used a 3" paper doll body from cricut to attach pants boots and jaket for Santa. I cut off the arms so he fit in the chimney. He was glued upside down in the chimney, then I glued the chimney to top of the b.








Feels weird to be working on Christmas things, but it was fun and I am happy with the outcome.

believe chip board phrase with Guest crafter Loie.

While shopping a couple weeks ago at Hobby Lobby we came across these believe chip board words. They were 50% off so only about $3.00. We each purchased this and a snow flake. Yesterday we  worked on them and this is the outcome from our Adventure. We ended up with two cute ideas with the same phrase.

What she used.
1. Hobby Lobby chip board phrase believe.
2. Teal paint for outside edges, paint brush
3. Iridescent teal specialty paper from Hobby Lobby
4. Glue, Glue stick and glue gun.
5. Christmas beads, Holly leaves, Tiny pine cones, Snow flakes and  Deco-Art SnowTex
How she did it.
1. She placed paper on first. We then found that it was easier to paint the edge prior to gluing paper down. Because of the kind of paper she used any paint that accidentally got on paper she was able to wipe off.
2. Paper was 12" x 12" so had to be re-positioned to cover the whole phrase. You could slightly see where it was joined together, but she knew she was going to be able to cover this with some of the embellishments she had picked out.
3. She then started laying out her embellishments, but not gluing them down. After finding the perfect spot for each piece, she used hot glue to place each piece where she wanted them.
4. She wanted snow on the piece. Trying first puffy paint. This did not look like snow to either one of us. So I got out the Deco-Art SnowTex she used a small spatula tool to place it where she wanted.
Her finished phrase was so cute. This is so much better looking in person.
Sorry about the mess behind her.
I hope you enjoyed Loie's believe craft. Check out her snowflake.
1. Again here she used a chipboard item from Hobby Lobby.
2. Glitter paper on top and white paint around the edges.
3. Teal and Silver glitter snow flake embellishments
4. Pink Holiday pick that was disassembled and hot glued down.
5. Pink Stickles 

After putting pink Stickles around the edge she desided she did not like the look of it. She removed it and is planning on doing a silver glitter edge. 

We had a Great Day together, But then again we always do.
