Masterboard Monday.

 Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

I am here today to show you a card made with this Masterboard:




This is how I finished the card.


And the inside.

I actually made several masterboards while playing with this technique because when I started I couldn't stop it was so much fun.



It's another of those techniques that I used to do with children when I was teaching.


 So this is how it's done.


I'm for ever blowing bubbles! Pretty bubbles in the air'! 
Sorry just couldn't resist it.


You only need about a quarter of a cup of water as too much water will dilute the colours and then add a couple of teaspoons of washing up liquid depending on the strength of the liquid. You need this to create good bubbles.
You might want to practice with one colour to begin with but obviously you can make up several colours if you like.



You then need some liquid watercolour paint or inks, a pipette, watercolour paper and a straw.


I added about a teaspoon of ink and then the fun begins, just blow! and you should get lots of bubbles created.


Push the paper through the bubbles and then allow the paper to dry. this is why I ended up with so many sheets as I like to do another one while I wait for them to dry.


The first colours added to the paper will be quite faint but don't worry just keep building it up until you are happy with the depth of colour and pattern and of course you can always add more paint to the mix.


You should end up with something like this. I've added some purple to my colour too.

And I've finished with a card but this would make a great journal cover too. 

Construction next.


Using AALL & Create stamp.


Just stamp roughly around the card blank using first and second generation stamping.


Then onto the Masterboards.


A small section was attached to the card blank and then I cut out pieces from the other  two using them to create a collage effect on the card.


Which is how I completed the design.


It's not easy to see but I finished by adding Stickles Glitter Glue to the front flower.


So that's your lot! and of course there's plenty of card left for the next project.

 I would love to hear your comments.

Many thanks for stopping by and happy crafting,
