I'm debating about signing up for this since it looks interesting and I've never done something like this before. Only thing is, if I do sign up, I can't have anything with glitter!

Also, when it says "gel medium", does that mean something like Mod Podge? Like I said, I've never done this before...

@dragngirl I can't guarantee that what is sent to you will not have glitter....you can check with your partner and ask them to make sure that if they used glitter that they put a coating of gel over the glitter to keep it from shaking loose off of the card.....Mod Podge is a glue product....I would test it on a sample sheet and then cut it to see if all is sealed well before using it on the masterboard..... I use Liquitex Matte Gel Medium and it works great....It is pricier than mod podge but it's a gel and goes on smoother and does a much better job. I hope this helps and you join in!

I JUST BOUGHT GEL MEDIUM AND IT GOES ON LIKE A DREAM.

@dragngirl - I use matte Mod podge on my master boards & it works great. I just brush it on the backs of the paper scraps like glue.

I made my masterboard and I've cut it into 10 ATC sized cards....I really like the way this turned out....I hope everyone is having as much fun with this as I am! :-)
