Tomorrow on Good Things Utah!!! Birthday Reminder Project


This classy birthday hanger will look great on your wall to remind you of your next big celebration! You will make the birthday “mini album” using luggage tag holders. After the birthday has passed, you will simply flip the chart to the next page! This awesome decoration will make sure you NEVER forget your next important birthday again!

ITEMS NEEDED:
6x6 Designer Paper Pad (I used the My Minds Eye Breeze Pad LF2102 but check out our website for lots of other styles)
“Breeze” Fun Day Pearl Swirl LF2043
“Sunshine” Lovely Title LF2081
Luggage Tag Holders
1 silver 1” ring
1 metal hook (purchased at Rod Works)
Brown Ink Pad
Cream Ribbon
Antique White Paint
Sand Paper
Mod Podge & E9000 glue
Wood Frame with Bead Board insert (LIMITED availability on our website)

INSTRUCTIONS:
For the Frame:
 1. Paint the Frame and the middle of the bead board sections with the antique white paint.
2. When the paint has dried, sand the frame lightly. This will remove the wood “hairs” and make your project feel smooth. Then, apply a second coat of paint. Using Sand paper, “antique” the edges of the frame. Mod Podge the top of the wood frame.
 3. Cut (2) 1 1/8”x6” strips. Ink the edges of the strips with brown ink and mod podge onto the beadboard. I cut 2 strips because I had to overlap the paper and make it long enough. Modpodge the top of the paper. I attached the cream ribbon across the seam of the 2 papers as shown so you don’t have a seam showing between the 2 papers.
4. Glue the metal hook to the bead board using e9000 or any other strong glue.
5. Mod Podge to the top of the frame as shown. You can mod podge right over the glitter!
6. Cut the Pearl swirl and place on both sides of the title as shown.  Here is a picture of how I cut the swirl:

For the Birthdays:
1. Cut as many papers as you will need for the birthdays from the 6x6 pad. They need to be cut to be 2 5/8” x 4”.
2. The pictures were printed to be 2”x2” and the photo matte behind the pictures are 2 ¼” x 2 ¼”.
3. Type the birthdays in your favorite word processer and then cut to adhere to the page. The font size I used was 18 and it was Baskerville.
4. Ink the edges of all papers with brown ink.

Most items for this project can also be found on our website www.aPage4allSeasons.com under the category "Good Things Utah" Project.  You can also see more 6x6 paper selections under My Minds Eye in Lost and Found 2 and Six by Six.

We have added the whole new My Minds Eye Lost and Found 2 Line! We also added the 6x6 paper pads! We have added them both at a discount and are excited about how gorgeous they are! My favorite part of Lost and Found is the gorgeous GLITTER that is on so much of the paper and embellishments. It makes everything (including me when I design with it) sparkle!!!

Today on Good Things Utah! Chalkboard/Magnet Board Door Hanging

No more sticky notes!  Now you can use this fun magnet board/chalk board for messages to your special guests!
Items I used:
Mod Podge - Outdoor
Teresa Collins Mr. and Mrs. Collection Kit (on SALE on our website)
Magnet Board (mine is 12x12 and from the Wood Connection)
Handle (bought at Wood Connection)
Teresa Collins Blingage Crowns
Maya Road Pins
Zva Creative Black Rhinestone Swirl (CRS-02CB-102)
Bazzill Black Organdy Flower
Black Distressing Ink
Chalkboard paint
Brads
magnets
 

Instructions:
1.      Spray your magnet board with the chalkboard paint. I use canned chalkboard paint, it eliminates “brush” stroke marks.
2.      
   I   Cut the paper into 3” wide strips of paper.
3.        
        Lay them out all around your frame so you can figure out the spacing and pattern!

4.       Rip the edge of the paper and ink in black to “distress” the look.  (Did you know if you rip one way you  will get a white edge, if you rip the other direction, your edge will be the same color as the paper!?)

5.       Mod Podge the top of the paper with Outdoor mod podge

6.       Using the ribbon, tie the handle to the top of the magnet board.  Make sure to loosen it just a little so you can still get your magnet board back in the frame and laying flat!


7.       Embellish as desired. .. I tied the fun crown blingage and put a pin in my knot.  On the other side, I tied the chalk into the other knot 

8.       For the magnets, I just took the backs off some cute brads and attached a magnet to the back!

We also have this paper available at a DISCOUNT on our website… www.aPage4allSeasons.com
