Summer Mini Rectangle Scallop Clipboard

Hello friends! Jennifer here to share a fun little project I created using the Mini Rectangle Scallop Clipboard!  I have said this before but the Clipboards have been one of my favorite releases so far!  The smaller sizes are great for home decor or to use a favorite Instagram or Instax photo!  I took this photo of my daughter and her friend getting ready for their first trip to the pool for the summer with my Instax camera. I thought it was a perfect fit for the size of the clipboard!  

I started out by coloring my acrylic with alcohol ink (which is a fast and easy way to change the color of acrylic!).  After drying, I flipped my clipboard over to begin embellishing. 

Next, I adhered my background patterned paper using Beacon 3-in-1 Craft Glue.  I wanted to add some texture to my background by using texture paste and my 6 inch Diamonds Mascil. I applied a light coat of the texture paint not worrying about the coverage being perfect. 

And here is the final result!  It almost looks like little pieces of glass! 

After dry, I was ready to add my photo and embellishments!  

Thank you for looking!  Be sure to check out the selection of clipboards at the Clear Scrap shop! Have a great day!
