Altered Clipboard Using The "Happy Toether" Line By Fancy Pants...

I love making altered projects. I found this on the "Fancy Pants" site and had to make it. I  thought I'd share it as some of you might want to make one also...

Here are the basic instructions to make one for yourself."

Fancy Pants Supplies:
Happy Together: Forever
Happy Together: Strips
Happy Together: Make me Smile
Happy Together: Cheerful
Happy Together: Element Stickers
Happy Together: Journal Book
Happy Together: Buttons & Brads
Happy Together: Ribbons & Trim
Other Supplies: clipboard, digital photo frames, brown ink, brown pen



1. Cover clipboard base with "Cheerful" (cream/brown dot). Trim edges, sand and ink with brown ink.
2. Cut a piece of "Forever" (blue damask) to 8" x 9". Adhere to clipboard about 1 1/4" from the top and centered horizontally. Use a brown pen and a ruler to make faux stitch marks around top and sides (bottom will be covered).
3. Cut out brown zig zag strip from "Strips" paper. Adhere 1/2" from bottom and trim off excess.
4. Add Scalloped border sticker from Elements Stickers to the bottom of brown strip. Add "Moments" page tab sticker to left side of border sticker as shown.
5. Add strip of 3 photos to scalloped edge journal page. Adhere to page as shown. Add heart stickers and large brown brad at top.
6. Add strip of 2 photos to scalloped circle journal page and adhere to page as shown. Add small flower sticker with small blue brad to top of photos. However,I wanted to fit a number of photos on it so I resized them to 2.5" wide and used a digital frame on each one to resemble a negative strip.
7.Mat "Life is Good" sticker onto "Make Me Smile" (Brown side) and cut around. Add to page with pop dots as shown.


8. Finish clipboard with a large brown brad in lower right corner and a bow from ivory ribbon at the top.
