Holiday Master Board
|
|
Set
your eyes aglow when you see how easy it is to create an exciting collection
of holiday projects with a single Master Board. Our Staff Artist, Mona
Gettmann, created a stunning holiday Master Board using 12x12 paper,
paint, art stamps, and an assortment of embellishments. From that one
Master Board she created a whimsical holiday menagerie of projects.
