Corkboard Christmas Presents

 Corkboard Christmas Presents

by Geli

I wanted to do something for the kids teachers and it'd be a good last minute Christmas present too, if you're looking for ideas.

I couldn't find the right sized cork board, so I made my own. At a cheap shop I bought 3 document frames, about A4 ($2.50 each) and 6 sheets of cork ($2.50 for 2). I took off the glass, glued 2 cork sheets on the backing cardstock and glued on all papers and decorations with Helmar glue. I used the vintage school paper from Graphics45, available at my2angels. The vintage look goes so great with the cork.

 

The papers I used are:

Games and Playtime

One Two Buckle my Shoe

Jumping Joan

Calico Kids and 

School Days

Here are some details:

book charm and ruler charm with green baker's twine 

(I love this stuff!!!):

a handmade flower with a skeleton leaf:

some orchids:

another handmade flower:

sweet little apple charm:

and yet another handmade flower (I was on a roll) 

with leaves and a felt heart:

So, if you are still looking for some Christmas pressies to make, try some cork boards!
