Description:

I love to make masterboard or serendipity board. So I was thinking to swap some cool masterboard ATC backgrounds that have similar colors but different patterns.

This is series of masterboard swaps. For this swap create masterdboard using SHADES of Red ... as a primary color with some text or words or saying from book dictionary on it.

1) It can have some touches of other colors but Redish is the primary color of this masterboard .Please lean toward crimson or dark shades rather than rose or pink. You can use any technique and media with any pieces of handmade paper, cardstock or stamped images as long as it is redish. Try NOT to make it flat( single layered) or boring. Use mixed media and layers to create depth for your masterboard.

2) There are supposed to be text from book or dictionary or sayings relevant to background not overpowering though.

3)When you done creating cut 4 ATC total and send to your 2 partners ( 2 ATC to each partner).

Feel free to embellish or finish your card if you feel like it missing something but this step is optional. your background should already look like ATC

Thank you. Please no newbies, rating 4.95 and up and you have to be rated for paper swaps like ATC, handmade postcards, collages etc.

Series: 1) Any shades of Green + stamped letters (done)

2)Any shades of Blue + Birds(done)

3) Any shades of Red + words from dictionary

4)Any shades of Orange/Yellow + butterflies

5)Any colors with Gold

6)Any colors with Silver

What is master board?

Darida 02/ 6/2014 #

Masterboard technique .... take 12x12 cardstocke or smaller.... plain or scrapbooking page and start making collage using mixed media, layering pieces of different papers, images textures etc gluing , stamping embossing, waxing, painting ower glazing washing whatever.... if you google collage masterboard techniques you will find tons examples and tutorials. like this one .

you need mod podge or gel or some kind of lacquer. it's like decoupage. am i right here?

Darida 02/19/2014 #

it is kind of..... but in my vision decoupage it is kind of one dimensional, unless you put bunch of layers, this multilayered effect you can get by doing WAX techniques much more exciting then decoupage. so I would say do decoupage as a base and on top of it layer of gesso, another layer of tissue, another layer of stamping al ower + paint and other techniques to make it deep visually
