My Memo Medley is mounted on a piece of heavy duty cardboard that I covered with Basic Black card stock. Then I stamped everything in Whisper White and lightly sponged over the surface of the black card stock to achieve the chalk board effect. I also added some mini cloth pins so I can clip notes to my memo center. At the right bottom I attached an envelope that I made to size with the envelope punch board. It can hold additional notes, coupons, etc. Most importantly I made sure I had a pencil holder and a matching pencil attached to the board so I don't have to search for one when I want to write a note. I like how it turned out and I had fun doodling on my chalkboard where imperfections only add to the chalkboard look that I wanted to achieve.

October Paperpumpkin Memo Medley
This month paper pumpkin was like a diamond in the raw. It needed a little polishing to shine. So I went to work with what was in the kit and then added some and here is my result. I think it turned out very cute.

ReplyDeleteI really love this and am trying to recreate one for my daughter. How did you get the mpp pad attached to the board? I want to be able to take it off to refill it but am afraid I will tear the black cardstock. Thanks so much!
