How to make a 'Let's Get Inspired' board?

Assalamualaikum and hi readers. I created this craft about 30 minutes ago. So, I'm going to show you how to make this simple board using corrugated cardboards again. Enjoy!

How to make a 'Let's Get Inspired' board?



What you need:

1) Corrugated cardboards (you should have at least two different colours of cardboards)
2) Adhesive/Glue
3) A pair of scissors
4) Ruler
5) Pencil

For the design, you need:

1) Any picture/photo which you can relate to your selected quote. (You may draw it or simply get a picture from the Internet)
2) Your favourite quote (printed on a plain, white paper/coloured paper)

Steps in making a 'Let's Get Inspired' board:

1) Cut your corrugated cardboard into a 10x15 cm rectangle.



2) To make the border of the cardboard, you should have 4 small strips of black-coloured corrugated cardboard that look like these.



3) Now, paste the strips horizontally followed by other two strips vertically.





4) I chose a picture of an umbrella to be related to my quote. Feel free to choose any picture that you like. You might also like to paste your own picture.



5)Adjust the position of the picture so that your quote can be pasted perfectly next to it. You can use your creativity to determine the position of your picture as well as your favourite quote.



We're done! Hope you like it!



Useful tips:

1) The quote that I used was in Footlight MT Light (bold), font 20.
2) You can simply use any size of the board for your craft.
3) You can also make an envelope that can fit the board. This 'Let's Get Inspired' board is also a great gift to be given to a friend.
