Paper
Covering chipboard with cardstock or patterned paper is about the easiest way to decorate chipboard letters and shapes.
Supplies you will need:
Trace the chipboard letter or shape you are working with onto the paper. By adhering it upside down.
Trim the excess paper away from the chipboard letter or shape with a cutting blade-it is much easier to get into the small corners.
Sand paper the edges of your newly covered chipboard to give it a high quality finished look. It will really pop off your LO!
Unsanded chipboard letters and shapes have sharp and torn looking edges.
Sanded chipboard letters or shapes have a much cleaner finish and look great. If you use a white core cardstock or any patterned paper, the white will be fabulous!
