Tuesday Tutorial: Doodled Laptop Bag
By Candie Cooper - To see more from Candie visit her blog, Candie Cooper's Journal
Put your notebook, laptop or craft supplies in this awesome
case! Here's what you need to make it:
Canvas pouch, Apple Barrel acrylic paint in desired colors
or Folk Art fabric paint, Glo Away (glow in the dark paint), zebra Duck
Tape sheets, scissors and a paint brush.
Add dashes with neon orange Apple Barrel paint around
the pouch. This is so easy! What I love most is how the brush
marks look on the textured canvas.
Cut strips of Duck Tape using the grid on the back to
fit on the outer green pouch. You could also cut out a shape with
scissors or even a die cut machine.
Since this surface isn't too paintable, the tape was a
good solution. I love the patterns, but you could use solid tape
too.
Add ribbon ties to the loops on the zipper for pull tabs. To keep the ribbon from fraying, apply a little Mod Podge to the
edge.
For a little zing, outline some of the dashes in Glo Away
to make you bag glow in the dark!
Ready for school, work, or even better---play!

Monday Funday: Fun Personalized Clipboard

It's the start of a new week, and with the kids
continuing to head back to school for a new year we wanted to help you create
some fun back to school supplies. Homework will be more fun with this
personalized clipboard. Debbie Saenz designed this clipboard using Mod
Podge and FolkArt hi-shine glaze. A clipboard is something that can always come
in handy, your kids can use it, and as a parent you can use it too. Add an
additional touch of personalization to this project by using a wood letter.
This way everyone will know whose creative board this is. Enjoy!
