Iāve got one done and another in progress. The second one could be done but Iām not in love with it so I think it needs more of something but Iām not sure what.
Any tips for how to add āmoreā to a masterboard that feels like it should be done (stenciling, marks, and spatters added) but still feels like itās missing something?
Stamps, scribbles, dots, script. Dip a bank card edge in paint & make cross hatch marks here & there. More splatters, black, white, red, metallic.
I was in this boat on the one Iām calling done ā Iād prevoiusly thought it was finished and then came to hate it. My solution was another round of a thing Iād already done but in a different color, and it made a world of difference. I think; I may hate it again by Monday 
.
Reminder for sending, everyone remember to message me and your partner(s) when you send and receive! Thatās the best way for me to keep track because I kinda turn off āorganization modeā when itās just in the swap thread 
thank you! 
I might be done with the masterboards. Not completely convinced both partners will love them though so I might try to make another oneā¦ Tomorrow Iāll do more stalking to plan my small items 
Just tape another one to an edge to make it bigger? 
Good luck! 
I struggle with this tooā¦ often when I add more to āfinishā one I regret it immediately and wish I had left it as it was 
So something very minimal is usually best. I echo @Magpieās and @megwellās suggestions You could also use a sharpie or thin paintbrush to add some lines/tracing/outlining/etc
Thatās what Iām afraid of. Iāve been holding up pieces of paper to mask it and envision it in smaller pieces and I think it might actually be ok. I might just be reacting to the colors being a bit outside of my norm coupled with the fact that I havenāt made many masterboards before.
Luckily I still have a couple more weeks to play/fret about it
Made a second one; gonna start the third soon!
Just remember that they are really just bases to be used for a start for other things!
I have received a lot of master boards that would not stand on their own but as backgrounds, they were magic and perfect! I canāt wait to see the galleryā¦hope there is another round in the fall!
Wheeee I got into a groove and finished everything today! Itās all ready to go out in tomorrowās mail! 
woohoo! you go, girl!
I think Iām mostly done tinkering with masterboards, but I donāt think Iām going to get to the small item crafting until after weāre back from camping for a long weekend.
Time for a check-in 
If you havenāt posted anything recently please let us know youāre still active 
Hereās an optional check-in question: Whatās one of your favorite things to do when youāre making a masterboard?
I really like tearing book pages into strips/pieces, especially foreign language pages.
I am having fun with many layers of stencils.
I enjoyed making various stamps out of household objects!
My boards are done, and Iām hoping to work on the small tonight.
I agree with @roler about turning random stuff into stamps/mark-makers. I also like the effect of dry brushing.
Stamping on tissue paper and glueing the stamped pieces randomly!
Iām glad I asked! You guys are giving me new ideas 
Using ALL of the supplies. I seem to start off with a small batch of items and by the end I have everything out.
Iām still learning and I think Iām missing stamps in my mess. At least, I think I would benefit in my mind from them!!
I love the paint splatting, I think it feels free-ing, like being a child that was allowed to do stuff but then got told to stop and grow up!
We give such contradictory messages to kids, itās weird. Like aeroplanes with food, essentially just playing with food, but then as you get older youāre not allowed to play with food.
