Instructions (Print version)

1.  Cut foam core board 17”x11”.  Trim striped and dotted paper 9”x11”.  Use a scrap piece of dotted paper, flip over to show the brown side and trim to 1”x11”.  Adhere so bottom is 9” from the top.  Use pinking border, on the template, to cut one 11” side of striped paper and adhere to top of board.

2.  Take 6” cork tile and cut a diamond on the left side using fingertip knife. Stamp and clear emboss the word NoTeS on the top part of the cork.   Ink and clear emboss all sides of cork board and adhere to the top left side of the foam board.  Attach sticky note pad to the right of the cork.

3.  Cut chalkboard paper 7”x8”.  Use grid on the ShapeTemplate to line up 3 diamonds on the bottom.  With the ¼” Round the Corner, punch each corner and place in the center of dotted paper.

4.  Use three flowers and place on the bottom left of the cork tile.  Adhere three flowers on the right side of the chalkboard paper.  Place large alpha stickers, to spell the word love, on each side of the diamonds.  Use micron pen to draw dashes inside each letter.  Place chipboard stickers inside each diamond cut-out and on the top left and top right on the chalkboard paper.

5.  Ink all edges of foam core board then, flip over to attach the five ½” magnets. Cut and adhere two small pieces of Velcro to hold the pen and chalk to the board.  Add Heidi Grace’s decorative pins to the cork tile!
