Can you give me directions on this? I would really like to do this for a friend's workshop. You may contact me at [email protected] if you would please.

I would love to know how you made this too. I have been wanting to try these, but don't know quite how the layering goes. Is the foam board on the back of the whole thing? Did you buy cork tiles, or the thin cork? [email protected]

These are very easy. I actually got the ideas from a bunch I saw here at SCS. I used foam board (my downline bought it online, I'm not sure where), but I have also used matboard to make these. The foam board or matboard goes on the back of the whole thing. Just layer cardstock the way you want it, stamp it, then put the cork on. I used cork that I got from Target, I cut it into fourths, so I could get 4 corkboards out of the sheet. It's pretty thick, about 1/4-inch or maybe a little more. Anyway, I stuck it all onto the foam board with sticky strip, and I stuck the cork on with sticky strip. For the tacks, I used polyshrink, then used E6000 glue to stick it onto tacks. Very easy, just takes a little time. Hope this helps!
