Paper Crafting Tip # 27: Make Faux Chipboard

Baby_circles0001
Hi
there!  This week's Try It Tuesday Challenge is to make faux
chipboard.  It's so easy!  Just punch/die cut a shape or letter out of
cardstock 3 or 4 times.  Use the heaviest cardstock your punch/die cut
machine will take.  Glue the shapes together, and you will have a
"chipboard" accent or letter.  For these circles,  I stamped the
images with Palette Noir Black ink and colored the images with
watercolor pencils.  Then I punched them out with my circle punch.
After that, I punched circles out of heavy cardstock and glued 2 of
these under the circle images.  You can't tell the difference, even in
real life!  TRY IT!
