Make it on Monday.

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

I am here today to show you a collage card with a rotating mechanism, now that's got to be fun!:

I made this as a sample for my dear friend Cindy.

The design was done on a 6" x 6" card blank.

It was a quick card to make as I used some printed paper to cover the card blank then diecut the Tim Holtz cog dies (Sizzix) and used those to decorate the inside.

The front has a few rub-ons by AALL and Create and I used some washi tapes too. 

The whole thing was finished with Stickles Glitter Glue to give it some sparkle.

Hope you like it short and sweet today.

I would love to hear your comments.

Many thanks for stopping by and happy crafting,

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:

Used two of these Matstack pages which I ripped up and arranges on some fairly heavy weight paper.

Back again with this as you may have seen it here:

Then added stamping, Washi tape, embossing paste through a stencil and some splatters.

I am making something special with this which you will get to see soon but had a few pieces left which I used to make two cards.

I used some bookmark dies to cut three pieces for each card with matching colours.

Then attached these to a coloured card blank. 

To finish them off I added some die cut flowers that had been sitting around for ages and some sentiment tags.

These are quite busy designs.

I would love to hear your comments.

Masterboard Monday Journal Grids.

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

I am here today to show you a collection of collages made in my Masterboard Grid Journal:

I am still enjoying making these collage grids and I've decided some of them at some time may be used on cards.

Don't panic the ten pound notes are not real just paper napkins.

A few more samples.

It's great fun trying out some different techniques to create the papers and then designing the collages.

I've also added sentiments to these last ones and made two of them into card fronts.

I probably will scan some of these too and then use them on cards, we'll see.

I'm sure there will be more to follow and I would love to hear your comments.

Masterboard Monday.

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

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

You may remember seeing me making these masterboard pages in the form of grids using my hand made collage papers with a few found papers too.

The plan was to use some of these on card fronts but to begin with to just play with the papers to create collages without any thoughts about their future use.

After making a few pages I decided to stamp onto few with some very old 'Stamp in the hand' and 'Tim Holtz' wood mounted stamps.

I thought some of these would make good card fronts for men and this is one that I came up with.

I cut it to size and layered it onto black card before attaching it to the card blank.

I used the stamps on the card blanks too.

Stamped these with black ink using the second application to create a shadow image.

I would love to hear your comments.
