Love the layout. I need to get that paper.
Thank you so much for the faux chipboard lesson! Love it!
What a great idea! I had a duh moment as soon as you started the video. Why didn't I think of doing that. No need to kill yourself trying to cover chipboard, just cut your last layer with whatever patterned paper you want to use.

That is so cool to make faux chipboard!! And I also have that paper stack! Thanks for the ideas with the paper as well!
Thanks for the lesson, I have never used chip board but I really like the way it looks,and now I can
make it like you have shown us.. thanks so much for the lesson. I can't tell you how many times you have shown us something on one of the carts that I didn't know it was there untill I watched your video..

Thanks so much for the faux chipboard idea. That is a quick and easy way to do it.
I like that idea! It adds dimension without the pop dots and hopefully won't pull off of my cards as easy!
Thanks for the tip!
Love this !!! I have never cut chipboard because I'm afraid it will dull my blade. Now I can cut "chipboard"!! Thanks so much will def. be trying this soon.
what a super cute cowboy page robyn.

Cute page!!! I love the idea for the faux chipboard, haven't tried it yet..will definately have too as I really dislike covering bare chipboard..LOL I now know I must have PDDU cart. That is too darn cute!!
LisaRN499@aol.com
thank you. the faux chipboard is really fun to do, and so much easier than putting the real stuff through your cricut. (I have been known to use old cereal boxes but I like this much better)
Here's my first day at school card.

Cool. Thought I wasn't going to get to watch this. Kept getting error messages. Thanks much.
Hi Robyn,
Thanks for the faux tip!! I have sheets of chipboard, but I just can't get myself in the mood to use my cricut with it. I have the deep cutting blade, but I so don't want to hurt my cricut I just don't use it. Thanks for all you do. You so rock!!! Lisa G l_gobea@yahoo.com
Robyn you are FANTABULOUS! I love the LO and you made it look super easy! Thanks for sharing your creations!
Robin.. Great video! Thanks for taking the time to do this. Hugs and Happy Day to you!!!
I had fun doing this! The corner I chose to use was from Storybook and next time I will pick something a little less intricate!

You have yourself a cute little cowboy, it's great you captured him with his hat on since he doesn't wear them anymore. Great page

Hello Robyn,
I have used this faux chipboard method for a long time. I really don't want to cut chipboard with my cricut, thats just me. Thank you

This really saves on buying chipboard. I have only done this twice and this is my 3rd time. Thanks Robyn. My challenge is on the cricut mb pg. 22 #423
I made a mini album using my version of faux chipboard: Ritz cracker box. I cut out the tag shape on plantin schoolbook to make the pages on the cracker box. Covered the printed side with paper, and painted the other side. Added photos and a few small embellishments from cricut carts. I make up a bunch in various sizes of styles I really like and in colors I use a lot and put them in zip bags in a box. Then I always have embells to pull from when I need to make a quick card or mini album, like this one.
