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:

I've used an A3 sheet of card, some Tim Holtz Distress Oxide and a stencil.

I applied the colour to the card and then added a slightly darker ink to build up the design to look like water. The stencil was moved around to give the effect of water movement.

I have used a stronger blue on the next one.

 

The pattern builds up as you replace the stencil and add the different shades of blue.



And so to the finished card.

I've layered up sections of the finished Masterboard and used some Kate Crane stamps to create the fish which were painted and fussy cut. The tentacles and sentiment are from a different company.

These fishies are so cute.

The card is a pop up style.

Seeing the card from above helps you to see how it works.

At this stage it's important to check everything.

It has great depth to it but is completely flat when clossed.

This only uses a small amount of the Masterboard so watch this space, it may be back.

Hope you like it. 

I would love to hear your comments.

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

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

I make no apologies that you are seeing this Masterboard again. 

I had some small pieces left-over from another card project and we all hate to waste card with such a great pattern so I used it to make a simple card which only needs small pieces and some form of decoration.

I had already stamped, coloured and fussy cut some of the characters which I would later use to add detail to the card.

So here goes.

• Simply cut two pieces of Masterboard and attach them to the card blank. 
• Take a piece of white card and cut to size then tear along it's length and attach over the masterboard pieces.
• Cut a narrow strip of the white card and edge with an appropriate colour of ink and add a sentiment then attach to the card.
• Colour and fussy cut your chosen character. I added Stickles Glitter Glue to the hat, buttons and created a few snow drops too.

If you look closely you will see that I've added some Goggly Eyes too which I had forgotten I even still had but I think they work really well. 

I would love to hear your comments.

Masterboard Monday? It's Christmas cards!

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

I am here today to show you a card made with some left-over Masterboards:

I am determind this year to get those cards made earlier rather than let things get manic in December.

I've used a new Tim Holtz set of dies for this card and love it.

It's just perfect for these left-over inked papers.

These papers were intended to be part of some masterboards but they are perfect for these cutting dies so you can expect to see more of these soon.

I would love to hear your comments.

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

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

You may remember that I showed this a couple of weeks ago and meant to make some cards with it until I got distracted so I apologise for these being later than expected.

This was made with layering stamps and dies by Altenew and Tim Holtz distress Oxides.

I've used the black and white Masterboard for the background; layered with red card.

I applied some black Stickles glitter glue and left it to dry before adding a strip of the red card down the center and layered this with a piece of the red Masterboard.

To complete the design I've added gold Stickeles glitter glue to the diecut flowers and attached gold cord before attaching the flowers to the card.

And a sentiment and gold snowflakes.

A few small embellishements can make all the difference.

Hope you like it.

I would love to hear your comments.
