So, for the craft exhibition I attended lately (here some pictures) I needed a display where to explain what Midoris are, since these were the only stuff I was selling. I thought it was high time to revampe this nice but sloppy clipboard. I tried hard to go out of my comfort zone, using a soft, shabby palette with mainly my second last favourite colour (being green the first one).
Per la mostra creativa a cui ho partecipato un paio di settimane fa (qui alcuni scatti dell'evento) avevo bisogno di qualcosa dove spiegare cosa sono le Midori: ho pensato fosse il momento giusto di trasformare questa lavagnetta con pinza, carina di suo, ma un pò anonima. Ho cercato di uscire dai miei soliti colori e fare qualcosa di un pò diverso.

If you like to have a try, it is really simple to make and very effective! I used DecoArt products, perfect for any MixedMedia projects. Here a small tutorial:
Qui il tutorial, da pinnare o salvare nel proprio pc, la tecnica è facilissima!
I think this may fit the last challenge on: Simon Says Stamp blog: You’ve Got The Edge, since the focal point of this clipboard are the corners...no doubt!

Lovely, lovely! The delicate teal/duck egg blue is wonderful with the hints of gold, and I love how it all looks over the book text. Brilliant makeover!

What a great tutorial and a beautiful project! I love it, Gio. Kisses.
It is perfect project!!!! Love the colors!!!
Oh Gio, this is so great and a brilliant idea!!!
Absolutely gorgeous, kept enough simple to well show off the text on your Midori journals.
Thank you for the step-by-step photos, just perfect to understand and repeat the process if needed.
I sincerely hope your craft exhibition and sales have well run and that you spent beautiful moments and meetings.
Non saranno i tuoi soliti colori, ma l'impronta artistica si riconosce a mille miglia lo stesso! :D Favoloso mix di turchese e oro, molto estivo e vintage! E i pizzi lo rendono ancora più prezioso. Ottima idea per la mostra!
This one is something I rally love.
The material, the texture, the colours...
It´s great to use small peaces of lace like that.
Have a wonderful summerday!
( I hear you are having extremely hot weather in South Europe! )
