Getting Creative With Chipboard–it’s all about the ribbon

chip·board [chip-bawrd, -bohrd]

1. a low grade of cardboard, used as a backing for pads of paper, a stiffener for photographs in mailing, etc.
2. a thin, stiff sheet material made from wastepaper.
3. a type of board made from compressed waste wood bound together with synthetic resin.

If you are just finding your way to my blog, this is the forth installation of a week long series describing ways to get creative with chipboard. So far we discussed decorating chipboard with acrylic paint, alcohol ink, rubberstamping, and today it is ribbon.

Choose a piece of chipboard for your project.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Place adhesive on the back of the chipboard. Secure one end of ribbon to the back. Wrap ribbon around chipboard and adhere the end of the ribbon to the back, once again. Your decorated chipboard is ready to use on your project or card.
