This week's challenge is Anything But a Card! I was really excited to make something that I had seen on another blog with these colors and make it my own. Here is the color pallette for the ColourQ #114:
So here is what I made:
It is a wood block that I sanded and painted with a kraft color and adhered scrapbook paper. In the picture below, you can see a close up of the ribbon that I attached to the back of the block, added a binder clip (tied with more ribbon, a piece of bakers twine and a brad added for embellishment) and clipped our Christmas card on.
I am really happy with how this turned out! It is a fun way to display our Christmas card.
This is such a fabulous project that can be used for anytime, not just Christmas. I am going to be making more of these for sure!! You can clip anything on: recipes, quotes, photos, lists, whatever! So versatile!!
Here is the blog that I got the idea from: http://todaysfabulousfinds.blogspot.com/2011/09/interchangeable-photoquoterecipe-block.html
From our house to yours: Merry Christmas!!!
