Detour clipboard


 
Happy Monday! Hmmf - well Monday anyhow. Monday is never my favorite day though I really shouldn't complain.
Hubby, who is the owner/operator of a driving school, asked me a long time ago a while back to make him a new clipboard. Years ago I had made him up a fun clipboard to use while teaching. He loved it, but it was getting pretty worn and sad looking. I have had this fab Basic Grey paper in my stash for awhile just waiting to be used on a new clipboard. Well, I finally got around to it!
 
 
Now usually, I really like to add bits of a variety of matching ribbons tied to the clip part as well as a pencil or pen tied on and a few fun embellishments - ya know that's the fun pary - but hubby warned me to keep it simple and I'm quite certain he would have removed any excess that was not approved so |I restrained myself and kept everything as flat as possible!
 
These are also fun to make for teachers and I usually personalize them. I love giving teachers something they can actually use.
 
I would like to share my project at Cupcake Craft Challenges as this week's challenge is Anything but a card.
 
Thanks so much for all your lovely comments the last couple of days!
 
Cheers,
Shanna :)
