Christmas Jalopy Wish List by Amanda Phillips


Christmas Jalopy Wish List Notepad
Designed by Amanda Phillips 

Materials:

Old Jalopy die 
Small Christmas tree die
Die cutting machine 
120g Makin's Clay® - Red, Brown, Grape Leaf
Makin's® Ultimate Clay Machine™ 
2 wheels, 2 brads
Assorted paper - I used a mixture of music note and notebook so I could see my written notes
black card chip paper "posterboard"
2x4 acetate - recycled packaging works great
small amount of string 
1 ring binder
pencil
1/8" hole punch
Beacon™ Tacky Glue

Instructions:

Roll red, brown and green Makin's Clay® in Ultimate Clay Machine™ beginning on setting #1 and progressing one setting at a time to setting #4.  Let dry 24 hours. 

Use die cutting machine to cut:

10 inside sheets of paper (light pattern)
2 black poster board
2 red Makin's Clay® sheets
1 Makin's Clay® green tree and trunk

Assemble your tree using Beacon™ Tacky Glue. 

Use Tacky Glue to attach all jalopy accent pieces to the two red jalopy pieces only. You will not needs these in your notes sections. 

Take the front red jalopy and glue acetate to the back.


Punch holes for tires and secure tires with brads.

Glue on black poster board to cover

Do the same with back (windows and tires optional here).

Place binder ring in holes of all and glue tree to top!

Also if you would like to shade your jalopy, be sure to use a permanent ink in a dauber as some of the other chalks tend to work themselves off.
