Make Something Monday: The Clipboard Letter

This is a simple project for those epic letters that you might write.  These are also an exercise in creative expression.

Gather your stickers, stamps, some ribbon, and miscellaneous this and that together.

I chose to fold an 8.5 x 11 in half and go from there, but you are welcomed to make this on a smaller scale.
 I then grabbed some thin sheets of newsprint paper to attach to the inside of the under sheet.  I hole punched through all of them at once.
 Grab that ribbon or brads or whatever and tack it down.
 I then collaged the front of the card with sticky paper, washi and stamps.
And here is a view of the interior.  I embellished with stickers and stamps. Now I have several pages that can be flipped through to write an epic letter on and it closes like a book cover over a clipboard.

Go forth and write a long, long letter!

  1. Looks really nice! I made the flapper, so I might try this one too. Although I usually don't have that much to tell.

    Also, I tried the confetti letter idea you shared a couple weeks ago, and really liked it! :)
