Supplies:

• patterned Paper Pizazz®: school French ribbons, green texture, orange solid: Busy Scrapper’s Solution for School Pages
• colored paper clips
• Marker Felt font
• foam tape
• craft knife and cutting mat

1. Photocopy to reduce the size of the artwork, then mat the pieces on green textured paper. Place the artwork on the message board paper and mark with a pencil where you can cut slits in the ribbon with a craft knife. Once you have decided where you’ll position the artwork, use the craft knife to cut slits on the edges of the ribbons. Slide the artwork under the slits and glue down. Add paper clips as shown.
2. Cut out the printed artwork and add to the message board paper in the same manner as the child’s artwork, cutting slits in the ribbon and adding paper clips. Add the “my artwork” with foam tape.
3. Print out “gotta have” and other journaling on the computer. Mat on orange solid paper and add to the message board paper as shown, cutting slits in the ribbon and adding paper clips. Cut out the alphabet tiles to spell “art”. Add as shown with foam tape.
