Masterboard Monday.

Welcome all my new followers and hope you enjoy the journey.

A very simple Masterboard for a quick birthday card.
And yes it's Crazy Cats!


Started here with the balloons from the 'Crazy Things' set of stamps.
White card and black ink stamped several times with the same ink on the stamp until it completely faded away which gives depth to this very simple Masterboard.

 
Followed by this:
I had cut out the frame for another project and had kept the negative, you know how it is " Waste not, want not" as they say!
 
 
I trimmed this down to size and then stamped on it with embossing ink and heat embossed it with white powder.
 
I'm sure I don't need to show you this but here I am mounting a section of the Masterboard with redline double sided tape.

 
Carefully position and then remove the tape.

 
And here we are ready for the next stage.

 
I had stamped, coloured and die cut the cats earlier, positioning two of them behind the frame and then adding the third cat and the sentiment.
I completed the card with the addition of the green stickles glitter glue to the cats eyes.
Nothing better than a bit of shiny glitter!

 
I also added the balloon stamp to the envelope.



 
This is another card for the post so not too much depth there but still think it works but what do you think?
 
 
Any comments gratefully received.
Have a lovely week and happy crafting,
Angela x

This is really great, Angela. I love the black and white scheme, and how you've used the negative die cut frame. Very effective and striking, and of course, in my book, cats always go down well!

I love how you used the negative from the frame and the white stamping on it mirroring the background stamping ties it all together beautifully. The cats, of course, are fabulous! Anne xx
