Don't you love it when a project in the works gets completed! Today I am sharing my finished letter board. It stared with the Let's Toast stamp set by Lawn Fawn and a banner to go across the top of my Letter Board. I love this set so much it is my January Stamp Set of the month, a set that I pick to feature each Monday night LIVE on my Facebook page. AND, every month I have a PDF tutorial and video featuring 4 WOW projects with the Stamp Set of the Month. The Let's Toast tutorial is available HERE. Now, let's take a look at my completed letter board, decked out with images from the Let's Toast stamp set.
To dress up the large open space at the bottom of the Letter Board, I knew I wanted to fill it in with a little scene. I also knew I wanted to add in images from the Thanks A Latte set, also by Lawn Fawn. What I had to figure how it is how I was going to attach these to the letter board.
I thought about using the scratchy part of velcro, but was afraid that it make make the felt of the letter board get fuzzy. I knew I was going to have to create something to go on the back of each piece so it would insert into the spaces on the letter board, just at the letters do.
So, I took a piece of card stock and created a T shape, it has a flat spot to adhere to the back of an image and a straight piece that fits right into the slits on the letter board.
Here are the measurements to create these:
Start with a strip of sturdy card stock that measures: 1/2" x 1-1/2"
Score this at: 1/4", 1/2", 1" and 1-1/4"
Fold the ends in like z shape and glue the two end tabs together, press them down, creating a T shape. You can see what they look like when glued together in the photo above. I show you how to make them in the video below. You can also see the creation of each of the stamped elements.
You can see the making of the banner or part 1 of this letter board HERE.
