Finishing Touches for you, the scrapbooking connoisseur

Alterable Chipboard Accents

All lasercut titles are available in chipboard.
Other chipboard items include:chunky monograms, flourishes/frippery, bookplates, tags, puzzle shapes.
These chipboard is thinner and is embossable!

Chipboard lasercut embellishments : Monograms measure over 3 inches tall, script titles, tags, folk hearts, punctuation and floral accents . The chipboard is a two-tone gray color and about 0.020 inch thick - about the thickness of two pieces of cardstock. The chipboard is crisply cut with no webs or fuzzy edges on every shape. The weight is light but each piece has a solid feel with very little "floppiness". The surface is completely smooth and does not need any sanding or preparation before adding coloring mediums or paper.

There are a myriad of things that can be done to chipboard during altering. Use inks, paint, Ultra Thick Embossing Enamel(UTEE) , stamps and paper on the chipboard pieces for these layouts. The chipboard hold sup fine - it doesnt warp or get soggy from the wet mediums used on it. The crisp detail remained intact throughout the altering process. And all of the pieces were easy to attach to the page with both liquid and dry adhesives.

These Chipboard is thicker and sturdier than cardstock. The chipboard surface is very plain and is easy to paint, alter and embellish.

Chipboard is so easy to embellish that no matter what you do to it, it will always look great! The selection is reasonable and very versatile.

Get a sampling to try yourself.

Top 3 product wish list for August 2006

1. Glitter accented embellies

Lil Davis Designs' chipboard shapes come to mind .

http://www.lildavisdesigns.com

2. Flocking Powder

Love the texture of velvet !

It really looks great with solid images but also adds an interesting look to outline stamps.

Here's how it works: Use pigment ink to stamp your image. Powder your wet stamped image with sticky powder and heat until shiny. Do not overheat! Spoon flocking over your warm sticky design and press down with fingers before you pour off extra flocking. Heat again to harden off the powder.

It's easy and fun!
