Reduce Scraps, Create Masterboards 

Glad you didn’t speed up and add music. I like listening to your thought process. Happy I found you.

Love your masterboards, Ceri! I started watching your videos only recently, & I am hooked - you are an amazing artist. Thank you for sharing your talents with us, & also thank you for NOT playing music in the background & NOT speeding up your videos.

Again I must thank you for another clear and informative lesson on something that deals with a situation I find myself struggling to handle. You are a treasure to me and this community! 👏🤟

I love your style. I also prefer straight edges rather than torn. This video has inspired me! I haven’t done a master board in years! That is going to be my next project!

Congratulations on the book re-launch🥰Your masterboard is great. I´m glad you don´t use music in your videos and no annoying ads☺

I am masterboard obsessed. I love to make them, I love to use them, I love to look at them, I love to see other people (like you) make them, I love to masterboards that other people make. Go ahead....call me crazy, LOL, I won't be insulted.

I love everything about this. Thanks for always teaching us!

Such a lovely master board, Ceri! One of my favorite things to do as well. And so handy for a needed piece of ephemera. Love the book you found to put them in! Much more classy than my Medicare book! 😂. I really enjoyed this video! Love and hugs to you, my friend! ❤

Hi Ceri. Watching you working on this masterboard was really relaxing. It is a great way to get inspired when I get a bit down. It's very nice when you get all chatty. TFS 💕

I love to watch video's of masterboard making. Thank you.

My 3 C's. Coffee, cinnamon rolls and Ceri. The perfect start for my day.

Good afternoon Ceri! I am new to paper crafting and I’m so glad I found your channel, your such a source of inspiration and ideas! I didn’t know you did cakes, I bet they are beautiful! 🌻

Just what I wanted for today. Thank y ou.

This is one of the most beautiful master boards I’ve ever seen! 🏆🥰

Strippy Ceri 😂 You’ve inspired me to get more into Masterboards. 🙏🏽

You can turn on the camera anytime. Watching you create and talk is so relaxing ❤

Thank you so much for this video! I love to hear you talk about your artistic process. ❤

I loved this class today! Thank you so much!😊

I really loved watching you do this! So relaxing. I think my next one I will have to do straight edges! I have always used a tear ruler. Very nice! Please do this again! Loved watching this! Hugs from Texas! I would like to see you cut one up for tags! 😊

We love you Ceri. ❤️

Great to watch Ceri, really enjoyed it. I've never done a master board, but goodness knows I have scraps, so this is inspiring. I, too, dislike sped up videos or ones with music. I love the sound of art being made and any/all varieties of commentary. This was wonderful. Thanks.

Sponges are nice to quickly clean fingertips but one must remember to thoroughly wash them out!! Haha. I love your site!! I’m learning a bunch!! I’m in Texas watching!!✌🏻🤠

Ceri.. you are too hard on yourself!! You are fabulous! Just in a short time I’ve been watching you I have used several of your ideas!! Keep up the great work and give yourself a break!!❤

Thank you! I can't wait to start in. Good activity for staying at home! Have a great weekend!

Thank you so very much for walking me through the process. My brain seems to work like yours in regard to layout. I was cheering on your placement choices. 🎉 I would love to see a video of how you cut a master board and use in decorating a journal.

I’m so happy I found you. I just made my first master board. Not perfect but it’s a start. Thank you so much for sharing g your knowledge.

What an awesome find Geri :) Just starting my glue book journey and nothing better to relax with than paper and glue. I love making masterboards and Thanks for the inspiration :)

I've never made a master board.. quite inspired, will try to do. Thanx Ceri.❤😂

I am really enjoying your master board making. Never hav done this and watching it with great enthusiasm !!❤️❤️❤️

Great use of the scrapbook! I happen to have a 12x12 “sketchbook” that is now going to become a Ceri-inspired masterboard book. Congrats on the re-releases and have a wonderful time at the craft show.

Ceri, you are wonderful company for crafting!!! I haven't made a master board in a long time...this has inspired me to clean out my scraps!

I love how this masterboard turned out. What a great idea to use that book for masterboards and have them all in one place.

Of course, out of sight out of mind! It seems that the simplest idea and it is brilliant. I forget about even supplies I have because I can’tsee them. Thanks ffor the reminder.

Love how you have done this beautiful masterboard, Cheri! So uniform and neat looking. Actually, I love all of your projects. I have just discovered your channel and am a new subscriber. You are definitely a gifted teacher. Though I have been doing this journal making for a while, I learn something every time I watch one of your videos. Thank you for sharing with us! ❤

Hi Mr. Ceri. I really like your masterboard. The butterflies, numbers, and labels top it off beautifully. I have plenty of scraps so I think I'll give one of these a try today. Thanks so much. I always learn something new from you. "I AM the Way, the Truth, and the Life" ~ Jesus

Love watching you make things.

Pretty board. Would love to see it cut.

I used to do a lot of these. Can't wait to try it again! Thanks for the inspiration!

I'm a newbie at collage/ paper crafts, and I have learned so much from your videos. You are very talented! Thank you for sharing your time and art. I must say your voice and accent are a delightful bonus for me. 😊

Very beautiful gorgeous master board I 💞 it

Oh, and I forgot: I have exactly the way of treating washi tape. I also always use some glucose sticker down, I always cut the end straight and I have three boxes, especially for washing tape where I could colour code store them. it’s brilliant for. I got it over Amazon many years ago. Honestly, you would be my perfect crafting partner LOL

Amen about Christmas. Lets enjoy Fall, Halloween and Thanksgiving first. It was enjoyable watching muck through the scraps and create these gorgeous collage.

Hi Ceri, It turned out great. This was a relaxing video. I could watch and support you & get my mind off a hectic day.

Always a pleasure to watch you create! For the “ends of the washi” - I use tiny paperclips 🖇️ under the edge (not clipped, just setting under the edge, so I can find the end and lift easily. I do that for all kinds tapes.

I’ve never seen a master board that I’ve liked well enough to make one myself. I really like yours & now I’m going to try to make one.

How ironic that I too, was making some master boards when your video popped up. Nice crafting with you Ceri. ~cheers~

Thanks Ceri. Just what i needed, relaxing, feeling a bit under the weather. Great idea actually for any size coil note book, especially when we tend to collect them for "something" down the line!! 😂

Ceri I just want to say that you have taken all the bits and pieces from various things that don't look like much but after all the layering it becomes something that is very appealing that is now useable for other projects. I have always liked the layered look you create with your Masterboards but after following you and watching how you get those pieces from so many things and make them into something useful and in time you get those things and create something that looks so good. You broke it down and made it easy to follow and you are a true inspiration. Congratulations on your relaunch of your book and molds. This was another great video and so enjoyable to watch. Thank you. 🙂

Always lovely to have my breakfast with you dear❤. I for one am glad you don't speed up or play music 😉💜. Need to keep an eye out for one of these books...great space saver and very nifty ❤❤❤

I'm a newbie, and I just loved this video! Thank you for sharing.

Its early in the morning here in the Netherlands, having my first cup of tea, this was very relaxing and inspiring to watch and has set me up for a crafty day, thank you

I find your video and your chat inspiring Ceri. I have enjoyed watching where you are going with this piece, I find the master board activity Very helpful in working out the composition, which I struggle with at times in my collage and mixed media efforts. Thanks for sharing.

Great book! And for that price too! I really enjoy your style of master board creation. TFS!

Very beautiful gorgeous collage master board I 💖 it I'm going to give it a try 😊😂

Excellent idea to look for a scrapbook! I love watching you create. Masterboards are one of my favorite things to do for relaxing. Thank you for filming this❤

So pleased I have found this example of a Masterboard - only heard the phrase a couple of days ago. Your clear, concise tips on how you think through the process has been really helpful in clearing my thoughts (and, eventually, my scrap piles)! I used to make scrapbooks so I really appreciate the bargain you found in your local Charity Shop and I especially like how you are putting it to such good use. Thank you for the inspiration. Carry On Crafting x

Found that very relaxing to watch. I've never made a large masterboard.

Oh my gosh that’s the idea she got from me ☺️.., I love Nicole from relax cut glue .. I love making masterboard my too.. right now I have a composition book that I’m using for this very thing myself instead of a sketch book.. that’s such a fabulous idea tho is what I told Nicole too.. I love her.. 💜💜✌️

I look forward to seeing those gorgeous masterboards put to use, thanks Ceri 😊

Your videos are so satisfying to watch. Such a lovely works of art

Your masterboard is gorgeous! Tyfs! 😍❤

Loved how you used pieces of documents with it! Made it even more interesting!!💚💚

You and Gayle both had chatty videos today and I'm loving it. ❤ Love&hugs to you and Biscuit

I love that book you got at the thrift store! I am never lucky enough to find anything that great. The page you created was beautiful!

I fold over washi tape ends tiny bit so I can get to the ends easily. Love your masterboard. I find it very relaxing to do masterboards and decorating tissue papers. When i need motivation, I do it. Great video, Ceri. Love the little "wet sponge" idea!! I hate to have sticky fingers. I'm weird that way. I've never seen anyone use washi tape on masterboard. It looks very nice!! I love that. I will try it on my next ne. TFS! Austin TX USA

Love this process and so fun to watch you do it. Your scraps are fab, and I loved the one fromn The Royal Welsh company in Newtown as I live near there!

Hello, from Mississippi, newbie here 😂 something I did, all suggestions are welcome. 🎉

Ceri - you really know how to construct a master board. I am so drawn to all you design... Thank you - I really enjoyed this.

Lovely 😍, thx for sharing!! 💕

Ceri, I love this page😊

This is so helpful. Love this master board.

I love when you do master board videos. Always motivates me to take out magazine pictures, backgrounds I wasn’t thrilled with and all kinds of stuff! Also a big charity shop thrift person :)

I totally get the early jump on Christmas being waaaay to early, but...as a crafter I need to start waaaay early to get things done in time. So, I plan on doing a masterboard using a Christmas theme/colors. Love your masterboard Ceri. I could sit and watch you do this stuff for hours. TFS Congrats on the the re-launch of your book and molds.😊

Hello Ceri…it’s Cari! I am so very happy you shared this idea!! I am just like you with the OCD and am having a terrible time getting started with master boards. I just so happen to have a similar book as yours that I found at our local thrift shop and now I know how to get started using up my scraps creating pretty usable paper! I’m going to try your way and hope I do half as great as you! Thanks for sharing your ideas! You rock!❤

Beautiful master board 😊❤

Lovely!

I like that you cut straight, glue paper straight and are not sloppy in you work. I really like that you don't play music on your videos! Barbara in Dallas, Texas

I love this page. I`ve never done one myself. I`m a cardmaker, not a scrapbooker, and I don`t have such fancy scraps. However, you always inspire me to create something similar. Thank you, Ceri! I absolutely adore your videos :)

Love it!! All I do is clean my craft room. 😂

Thank you for this tutorial, I love it and now I am a fan of yours!❤

Love this a work of art in itself.Great way to use up scraps❤

Love this project.

I agree with you about the music, Bravo for not using it!! I have watched you do this a few times and I am ready to do it!! I finally get it!! Thanks as always Ceri!

Great job. I enjoyed watching you put it together.

Love it.

I love this idea. And it's so pretty!

Cheers on the relaunch of your cake book! Enjoy the heck out of the meet and greet. You cake will be awesome. And as always, this project master board is terrific. The few I have done are always too bland. The ones sitting and waiting, I think I just need to strategically slap transparent paints on them. 😅 Thank you for sharing😊

I just discovered your channel and thus far have enjoyed your relaxed and genuine conversational style. Honestly, I can relate to so many things you describe about yourself and your art style, i.e. "not one to sit around (you took your art journal to Alaska) I am the same, I like to be busy/productive, liking things to line up horizontal or vertical (this is so my style), describing how the scrap pile can get out of hand (so true). I am definitely going to tackle a masterboard like this. I did one with scrap fabric and lace recently and it turned out so well. So fun. You seem like a genuinely nice kind person and I look forward to more of your art videos. I'm not super big into "mixed media" but I understand the appeal-maybe I become a convert! :) I pray you have the best day ever!

I need to try making a masterboard yours is so nice its inspiring 😊

Fab master board 😊

Great video, that page is so lovely!

There's nothing like having your Christmas tree with a jack o lantern poking out amongst the presents, that sits comfortably by your table decorated for Thanksgiving! Everything is so commercialized these days! Drives me bonkers! Wonderful masterboards!

You need to do you! I love you just the way you are!

I love the master boards are so good. Thank you for not using music its not needed

I only just found your channel and love your masterboard… I was compelled to comment as you started with the washi, as I always work with threes in my artwork too! I don’t know why but everything looks better in triplicate 😂

Your boards are beautiful.. I really wish I could get mine to look so good.. Have a great week..

Love it Ceri

Great board!❤❤❤

Hi Ceri, love your find! I Enjoy your vids ❤

Ceri I agree with you here in America I’m from Massachusetts every store has Christmas stuff already. It seems to me that they skip over thanksgivings 🤷🏼‍♀️ Your page turned out beautifully
