Happy National Pink Day! This is like a major holiday for Pinkimono, cause I mean…duh! It’s all about PINK! In the spirit of this colorful holiday, I thought tonight’s HTGAWC project should be all pink, but still simple. And\u00a0between Target and Heidi Swapp, I have a\u00a0super simple project for busy, hard working, pink-loving gals like me who adore\u00a0sparkly office accessories. Tonight we’re adding some\u00a0glam to a rather drab office necessity – clipboards!<\/span><\/p>\n So lately I’m obsessed with the term “mom boss.” It totally describes where I am in my life. Like right now as my inner boss is getting her work done, I’m holding my youngest, Scarlett. (While the right hand types, the left hand holds.) So since I’m “mom bossing” all the time, I thought I’d add that\u00a0expression to a\u00a0less than fab\u00a0clipboard that I scored\u00a0from the Dollar Spot at Target<\/a>\u00a0(They still have a few left last time I checked.)<\/span><\/p>\n Step 1:<\/strong>\u00a0Download the “Mom Boss” file<\/a> for your Silhouette Studio.<\/span><\/p>\n Step 2:\u00a0<\/strong>Open the file on in your Silhouette Studio on your computer. Make sure your\u00a0registration marks are on and print the file on cardstock with a laser printer.<\/span><\/p>\n Step 3:<\/strong> Open your cut settings. Under Cut Conditions set your Material Type to \u201cCardstock\u201d\u00a0and make sure the blade is set to 3.<\/span><\/p>\n Step 4:\u00a0<\/strong>Place your printout\u00a0on your cutting mat and send your design through the Cameo.<\/p>\n Step 5:<\/strong>\u00a0Cover your words\u00a0with foil and place them in the sleeve. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Step 6:<\/strong> Run your words\u00a0through your Xyron Sticker Maker. <\/span><\/p>\n Step 7:<\/strong>\u00a0Place your words how you would like on the back of your clipboard.<\/p>\n That’s it! Hopefully you went ALL PINK like I did in honor of this fabulous day. Remember Pink is all about kindness, tenderness, and sweetness which is what a Mom Boss needs to be when it comes to her little ones!<\/span><\/p>\n So let me know how your clipboards\u00a0turned out and how you celebrated the fabulosity of pink today!<\/span><\/p>\n Don’t forget to\u00a0post your pics\u00a0to Facebook, Instagram or Twitter with #htgawcrafting so I can like and follow!!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Happy National Pink Day!

Steps<\/h2>\n
To Prepare Your Mom Boss Expression<\/h3>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n
<\/a>Remove cut out words. (Or have your little office assistant like my Westley do it with you.)<\/p>\n
<\/a>(Note: To get the best foil coverage you can add an all black uncut rectangle behind the words and then send it to cut. This way you can avoid any white trim that may appear from cutting your words which\u00a0won’t be covered after your foil your words. I realized this after I did this project.)<\/p>\n
To Glam Your\u00a0Clipboard<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
<\/a>Send them\u00a0through your MINC Foil Applicator on the 3rd setting.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
<\/a>Once they go through, remove your pretty foiled pieces and set to the side.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n
<\/a>Remove the protective paper to reveal the sticky side.<\/span><\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n
<\/a> I know it’s tempting to place them on the front, but the words are raised which will defeat the purpose of a clipboard.<\/p>\n
