Custom Clipboard with Mod Podge

One of Pep's school supply needs this year was a clipboard.  She didn't want a boring clipboard like everyone else so we decided we would attempt to spice it up.   We bought a clear clipboard for $3.87 at Walmart and cut a 12x12 black/silver star scrapbook page.  Then I handed Pep the Mod Podge.  Pep didn't want to write on it so we Mod Podged it with the design showing through the bottom of the clipboard.  Not sure if i would it this away again.  The back of the clipboard even after several thin coats was bumpy feeling so we are very glad we didn't do it on top of the clipboard.  We added some shiny tulle and off she went with her new clipboard.  It's still in one piece four months in so it appears to be holding up.

We were looking for a jacket we could use as the Arena Jacket Katniss wore in the Hunger Games. This jacket is lightweight and perfect esp since we live in South Florida. The only con I would have is that it was caught on a door and the jacket ripped on the back in a nice little V. Would have been nice if the material was a little more durable. Covered it with silver duct tape as part of the costume design.
