Handmade Journaling Cards with Collage Masterboard – Video Tutorial

   

Hi everyone! Collage is one of my favourite techniques when it comes to creating! I’m sharing a fun way today on how to make a set of mixed media collage journal cards. They are fabulous to add some pops of colors to any of your journals. You can of course use the same technique to create a masterboard for ATCs, tags or cards. I am working with collage, stenciling and glazing. To finish my journal cards I am adding some stamping, ink and more collage. Click continue for a full video tutorial.

Mixed Media Index Cards with Sketchy Leaves Stencil and Brusho Background

   

Hi there, Susanne here! I am participating in this years #icad2023 challenge over on instagram. Icad means index card and I am “decorating” one card each day in June and July. I cut my cards from either watercolor or mixed media paper. It’s holds a lot more supplies than a regular index card and I also don’t have index cards at home. For today’s cards I played with watercolors one one and fluid acrylics on the other to create the background. I added some stamping for more texture and interest. For the focal point I adhered images from Sketchy Leaves together with some collage scraps. Click continue to watch the process videos.
