Masterboard Monday - Use it or Lose it.

  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 was a piece of card used to mop up.


From there it became this using AALL and Create stamps.
You may remember seeing this before and today I'm using up the left-over bits.


I took a blank card 6"x 6" and used several AALL and Create stamps to decorate it using one of my favourite techniques of stamping over the fold to the back. I love doing this as it just makes the card that little bit different and a surprise for the recipient.


I've used different colours of Distress Oxide for this card and mixed the stamping up a little adding water to some of the stamps just letting the ink dry naturally. I so love the way the Oxides runs.


Now I only had a few pieces of the original Masterboard left so I've ripped it into several pieces and edges them with a matching ink, then had a little play with the positioning as you can see here.


I used some black card to cut out an AALL and Create die and carefully cut away the numbers but as there wasn't a O I used part of the number 9 and trimmed it carefully which I think worked okay.


Finished with splatters of black Gesso,a die cut sentiment and some Stickles Glitter Glue.
If you would like to see the other cards made with this Masterboard you can find them here, here and here.

Now that's all used up I need to go and start a new Masterboard so see you again soon.

I would love to hear your comments.

Many thanks for stopping by and happy crafting,

I really enjoyed watching how you built all the layers Angela. You ended up with a great distressed, layered, eclectic with a hint of steampunk card. Clever customising of your 9 to a 0 too! Thanks for joining us at Just Add Ink this week. Kim

Lovely card Angela, the dies look great and I might need to look at AALL dies more closely...
