To cover with paper, first trace the shape onto the back of your paper. Cut out the design with scissors, and adhere it to the chipboard shape. Next, use sand paper or finishing files to sand any edges of the paper down to mold them to the sides of the chipboard.

To stamp or sponge chipboard elements, remember that the ink will appear darker on chipboard than on paper. So choose a lighter shade, or stamp off on a scratch paper, and then onto the chipboard to get a second generation lighter shade from the same ink pad.

To make a crumpled paper flower, punch out or free hand cut a few paper flowers in similar sizes. (To free hand cut them, start by tracing a circle about the right size. Then free hand petals around the circle. Once they are crumpled it won’t matter how perfect the flowers looked when they were first cut out, so don’t be scared to try it. ) Dampen the flowers with a spray from a fine mist bottle or by laying them on top of a damp cloth. Crumple the flowers into a ball, unroll and crumple again. You can also add additional distressing by swiping them over a coordinating ink pad. Unroll and layout the flowers. Glue them together or use a brad to attach the layers.
