Such a liberating way of creating something colourful and fun. Just letting go and putting down paint with no final result in mind is wonderful. Looking forward to next week’s session. Thank you.
Kylie - I learn so much from you - with every video. I tend to resist going full-in with dark colors. Watching you start with the black stencils - and then see what happened when you added the layers of paint and mark- making - inspired and encouraged me. I'm going down to the basement now to play with paint. Thank you!
What a truly ace idea to use the black paint first, I've ruined many a background by adding it last and it's too heavy, but this is ideal. Love the addition of the gold paint too. And I just love how you and Nina come up with two totally different ideas each time, you really are fabulous artists and always give out an abundance of inspiration. Tfs xo
Thanks so much Elizabeth - I like having black as one of the first layers as it then gives depth to a piece but I always like to add a little bit as one of the final layers. The gold just lifts it a bit. Thanks again Elizabeth xo
Love using found or recycled objects for stamping/printing! It makes you rethink before trashing anything (lids/caps from food containers; packing materials)!
What a wonderful video you took huge pieces of paper and before our eyes dress dressed and brought them to life. It's a real joy watching you, and having you explain we don't need expensive art materials. It can be heart breaking when we perhaps have little. Your ideas are inspiring and end results are works of art. Have to say it YOU'RE SIMPLY THE BEST. Thank you for sharing👏👏👏👏❤❤❤
Oh my goodness - thank you so much for your very kind comment. I'll have part two of this available at some point on Wednesday and in it I've tried to show ways of doing backgrounds without acrylics and in some case with only one supply. I truly believe that art and craft should be available to everyone no matter what they have. Thanks so much for watching and again for your very kind comment
What a fabulous way to start the day - Kylie and a cup of good morning coffee. What an incredible idea! I loved that you started with the black and white stenciling. That look all by itself was just amazing. I might try this, but will put some of the black and whites aside maybe hit them with some gold paint see what happens. I have a shoe box of craft paints that are getting old. I may have to stop what I am doing and give this a try. Awesome! TFS. I did. God bless and stay safe. I as trying to think what to use for paper. I have a lot of 12x12 scrapbook paper that I don’t like and will never use. I think I’ll use the plain white underside an see how that works.😄💕
Hi Evelyn - as always, thank you so much for your kind comment. Putting the black down as the first layer adds depth to the finished piece which is why I like to do this. But when I had stencilled all over I really did love the black on white as it was - so I've made another like that. I also have some with black and red underneath - I'll show this another time. Yes - 12x12 papers would be good for this. Thanks again Evelyn - have a good Sunday
This masterboard is just gorgeous - I’ve been struggling with backgrounds so this was so helpful. And I must admit that hearing the rain in the background was lovely 💕 Thank you for sharing your incredible talent!!!
Thank you so much Kristie - I'm so pleased this was helpful to you. We have deep snow now though it is supposed to get a little bit warmer from today and the rain is due to return. I love the sound of rain though
Such a useful tool on all levels. When I have a creative block I do master boards and the magic is it it unblocks me. They seem to find a hidden idea. These are soooo awesome. Thank you for your grand art creations.
Perfect day here for staying in and doing art -- it is -13C today and we had to thaw the cold water line out to the back of the house. Fortunately no broken pipe! But I feel quite inspired to sit down and make some master boards!
We had a few inches of snow overnight and it's snowing off and on today again! I've decided to just try and make the most of more or less having to be indoors as much. Glad your pipe was ok - not fun when they burst. Thanks for watching and commenting :)
Wow , not sure I would have been brave enough to start with black paint but it worked out so cool. To be honest I love just the black and white. Tfs hugs 🤗
Thanks so much Mari. I know ... when you see the amount of black on the page (and there really wasn't much white space left) you just think that it will totally dominate everything but once the layers of paint go on top it's amazing how the black goes into the background and actually then creates a sense of depth. I loved the black and white as well so I've made another one to use in future. Hugs for you too
Great master boards, Kylie. I've learnt something from you today - putting black shapes down first. I've never done that but I will certainly try it. I also liked the look of the board when it was just black on white - that got my imagination firing too! Thank you!
I know Debbie! I said to Nina earlier that she hardly had a spot of paint on her and I looked like I had bathed in it. The ink splatters left me with red dots all over my face and neck! I do enjoy getting down and messy with my paint. Glad you like the masterboards - thanks for your kind comment
Kylie, first time I’ve seen a master board, these look beautiful. I have subscribed to your UA-cam channel can’t wait to see more. Take care and stay safe. Theresa
Thanks so much Judith. I'm so glad I pulled the Dylusions out to use and they worked so well that I'm now temped to buy more - I do have the orange colour so might add red and yellow to that. There again I don't need more paints. Oh my! there's an argument going on in my head now lol. Thanks for watching and commenting :) xo
These are wonderful! I couldn’t tell if your acrylic paints were the translucent kind....it seemed like it because you can still see the black background images. I loved how you used up the paint left on the stencil and added it to the next page. Also, I like your method of “stamping” with the baker’s paper onto your journal page. Then I’m sure you can use the paper for collage or something too! Brilliant! Can’t wait to see what you make with these. TYFS ❤️🦋💜
Thanks so much Cindy. Black will tend to show through a lot of paints unless they are very opaque and left on quite thick. So craft paint applied in a thin layer as I was doing will always let the black show through. The Dylusions paints ended up as a thin layer because I was speeding them very thinly as well. It really gives a nice effect. I try and always use as much paint as I can. Thanks again :)
I feel like I'm in school and you're my instructor. I couldn't have asked for a better one! Thanks so much for the inspiring lesson. I'm looking forward to getting started. 🤗🤗🤗
Just stumbled upon your video. SO glad I did! I’ve been wanting to see how some of these beautiful backgrounds I’m seeing are done. Yours was perfect!! Step by step 👏. Thank you so much. Loved the paint covered hands too...very authentic 😂
I’ve avoided using black paint when creating backgrounds. TFS, I have been missing out on the depth and interest it brings. Great, helpful video. Thanks
Oooh these are beautiful. I never thought of doing master boards this way round. Normally I put the colour down first and then stencil. Next time I'll try them like this xxx
Thanks so much Diana. I think I actually got the flower stencil after I saw you use it when we did our Journalling by 5s collaboration - I think I got stencil envy lol :)
I have shied away from using black in what I create as it has always seemed too stark. Watching you use black and knocking it back has inspired me to try using black in a masterboard. Thanks Kylie for the inspiration.
Thanks so much Linda. Black can be too heavy and dominating although I do like little touches of it on my top layer. But putting it down early on means that it gives depth to the piece. Thanks again :)
Hi Kylie! I love all these pieces! Can't wait to see all they become. Isn't it funny how a product becomes different with a different technique like the Dylusions. Glad you tried something new. I hate it when I let a product sit because I am not happy with it.
Thanks so much Laura - I just took out the Dylusions thinking that it would be a way to start using them up (even if I don't like a product I find it hard to get rid of it - I probably would have donated them but with everything being closed even that is difficult now). Anyway, because I wanted the first layer to show through it became apparent that they do work best in this way. I actually want to get them in more colours now! Thanks again :)
Thank you so much Kylie, I really really love ❤️ these master boards, I really will attempt to make some of my own. Time is always an issue for me. But, I really really love ❤️ watching you make these stunning and gorgeous paper’s, is so enjoyable same as watching Nina too. You two make such a brilliant team. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags
Beautiful Kylie. I really love the board that you used a baby wipe on. It reminds me of old worn wall paper. Great effect as you can really see the stencils underneath. All in all they are all stunning! x
Thanks so much Julie - and you are right that it has the effect of old worn wallpaper. Putting the stencils underneath helps give depth to the pages. Thank you again xo
Awesome Master Board/ Background papers tfs Kylie... I am home from my holiday now so will slowly catch up will all the videos I have missed... Kia Kaha...
Tfs your talents Kylie! I watched Nina's as well. Love this tutorial. Appreciate the hard work you both put in to the videos, FB, and prompts. I may have a go at it and do a video myself or post pics in the group. Thanks again, Chelley - Studio74USA 🤎
Love all your papers, great way of using old paints and you have some amazing stencils, must have a go, masterboards are very useful, thanks for sharing, take care kylie, luv Ali xx
I am looking forward to getting to see what you use these master boards for. I like doing them but they sit around forever because they do not suit the style of journal I tend to make and I am not sure what type of journal they would look good in.
Hi Janice - I have a couple (maybe even three) videos coming up showing how I am using these. Hopefully that might give you some ideas. What style of journal do you make? :)
Many thanks Elizabeth. The Dylusion paints (the ones I blended together) come in a range of colours and are available from many places online. I think I got mine from Amazon but they are also available from Craftstash, Art From The Heart and many others. I've not seen them in any actual 'real life' shops anywhere near where I am. The craft acrylics I have are different makes including Pebeo, Hobbycraft's own brand, Americana, Artiste, and Crafter's Acrylic. Most of these I bought through Amazon, Hobbycraft or The Range. I just had a look at The Range website and they have them at a reasonable price just now at £1.25 (though Metallics and pearl paints are more expensive at £1.99). And of course they are available in lots of places online. I know that Arteza also do a set of 20 Craft Paints and it looks like they are a good price just now - I haven't tried them but going by their other products I would expect them to be a good quality (if you need more info on them let me know.) I think craft acrylics are good as they come in many different colours, shades etc and their size means that they don't take up a lot of space. My biggest issue with them is the cost - they are generally a lot less expensive in the US especially with sales and discounts. Sometimes if the likes of Hobbycraft has offers on for other acrylics such as Pebeo, Daler Rowney, Sennelier, or their own brand paints then per ML these can sometimes be not much more expensive. But not at the moment! Hobbycraft's own brand acrylic paint works out at just a little bit more at £2.00 for 75ml but you will get a slightly thicker paint for that. So, it's pretty good value just now. I hope this is helpful and if you do want to ask any more about paints then please let me know. :)
Loved this so much... are you able to advise where you got the stencil at 7.15 mins (flower one without square edges) that you made the fantastic black and white page you said you loved before you put colour on... thanks and have subscribed.
Hi Trish - thanks so much for your kind comment and your sub - much appreciated. The flower stencil is 'The Crafters Workshop Flower Frenzy 6x6 Inch Stencil'. I think I bought mine from Amazon UK but I had a quick look online just now and it seems to be available in quite a few places. It looks like it's currently being sold for around £6 / US$8. I've had it a few years now and use it quite a bit so to me it has been value for money. Hope that helps. :)
@@KylieCooStudio thank you so much for your efforts to let me know and also look for one for me. I have now found several. Will find the best one for postage to Australia.
These are great backgrounds Kylie, you showed a lot of really nice ideas. Will start to make some tomorrow. Thanks for showing! Loved the sound of the snow. It's been snowing here (centre of the Netherlands) a few days, just small flakes, but continuously, so we are in a white world at the moment. Hugs and take care.
Hi Tonia - thanks so much for your kind comment. I saw that the Netherlands was having its worst snow in a decade. It snowed more here overnight maybe around 15cm and it's been snowing off and on all day today. Take care and hugs for you too
@@KylieCooStudio Hi Kylie, We had quite some snow in the Netherlands, in some places a little, in some places A LOT (up till 25 cm was measured). Due to the (harsh and cold) wind, there were locally big differences. In our garden (5x10 m) we measured from about 3 up till 15 cm, because the wind was blowing the snow around in circles. I hope you understand what I mean. So, a lot of snow, but not as severe as in Scotland at the moment I think. These days a lot of people are hoping it will freeze long enough to go iceskating, but with covid it will be difficult keeping distance, so a lot of possible rivers and lakes are being closed down by the authorities. It is beautiful sunny, although cold, weather so we try to walk every day. Keep warm, healthy and safe. Hugs.
Yes I know what you mean - we would call that snow drifts - where the snow is blown by the wind and settles against wall and doors or by the side of roads. Take care. Hugs
Such a liberating way of creating something colourful and fun. Just letting go and putting down paint with no final result in mind is wonderful. Looking forward to next week’s session. Thank you.
Thank you so much Jackie - I sometimes get my best results by just going for it. And it was certainly fun 😀
I love making masterboards and backgrounds.
Kylie - I learn so much from you - with every video. I tend to resist going full-in with dark colors. Watching you start with the black stencils - and then see what happened when you added the layers of paint and mark- making - inspired and encouraged me.

Wonderful, Kylie. I especially loved the black & white, but the added color on top was just as great.
Thanks so much Eugene - yes, I love the black and white as well so I've made another! :)
Wow, can't believe how beautiful these turned out and you started with black! I loved the black only as well. Going to be a fun prompt!
Thanks so much Alicia - yes the black on it's own also looked good. Enjoy the prompt :)
Love using found or recycled objects for stamping/printing! It makes you rethink before trashing anything (lids/caps from food containers; packing materials)!
Yes it does. Thanks for watching Sandy :)
You and Nina make this look so effortless. Thank goodness it’s Super Bowl Sunday and my husband will be occupied. Master board touchdowns here I come!
Thanks so much Robin - have fun making them :)

What a fun idea for a rainy day! I wouldn't of thought of putting down the black first. Thank you for showing this♡
Thanks so much Cheryl :)
I loved the black and white backgrounds. But they got even better with the colors on it! Hugs from The Netherlands
Thanks so much Petra - and hugs for you in The Netherlands from Scotland
Easy...beautiful...inventive! Love it!!! ❤️
Love these pages. And your painty hands. Always a good move. X
Thanks so much Rose - I do seem to always end up covered in paint but I love it :) xo
What fun, playing with paints and making beautiful papers.
Many thanks Dawn - it was a lot of fun :)
Love this video! Thankfully there was no music, I appreciate this and have subscribed, can’t wait to watch your other videos😁 you are so talented!!

Thanks so much Sue :)
These turned out very nice and interesting. I love creating randomly. Thanks. -Marsha from Texas
Thanks so much Marsha - it's so good just to go with the flow and see where we end up :)
This masterboard is just gorgeous - I’ve been struggling with backgrounds so this was so helpful. And I must admit that hearing the rain in the background was lovely 💕 Thank you for sharing your incredible talent!!!
Thank you so much Kristie - I'm so pleased this was helpful to you. We have deep snow now though it is supposed to get a little bit warmer from today and the rain is due to return. I love the sound of rain though
Yes, forgot to mention that rainy sound was so soothing....you could use it as your “background” music lol
Such a useful tool on all levels. When I have a creative block I do master boards and the magic is it it unblocks me. They seem to find a hidden idea. These are soooo awesome. Thank you for your grand art creations.
Thank you so much Josie - I think it's a really good way to break a creative block :)
Hello Kylie, Love your backgrounds and master boards. Thank you for sharing your techniques. I thought the black and white stage was lovely too.
Many thanks Laura - glad you like these :)

I’m new to Masterboards. Can’t wait to see more!
They are a lot of fun to make. Thanks for watching and commenting :)
I have never tried putting black down first and I like it. Great masterboards!
Thanks so much Susan - using black this way really helps to add depth even with just a couple of layers of paint. :)
Great master boards, Kylie. I've learnt something from you today - putting black shapes down first. I've never done that but I will certainly try it. I also liked the look of the board when it was just black on white - that got my imagination firing too! Thank you!
Thanks so much Edna - the black underneath adds depth. I've also cerated another one in just black and white because I like it so much. :)
Thoroughly enjoyed watching the process of making a master board background. Thank you so much. 🙂
Many thanks Rose. I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
Your masterboards and backgrounds are beautiful☺
Any painty session that leaves your hands covered in paint is a good one! Love your master boards, thank you Kylie 💕💫
I know Debbie! I said to Nina earlier that she hardly had a spot of paint on her and I looked like I had bathed in it. The ink splatters left me with red dots all over my face and neck! I do enjoy getting down and messy with my paint. Glad you like the masterboards - thanks for your kind comment
Kylie, first time I’ve seen a master board, these look beautiful. I have subscribed to your UA-cam channel can’t wait to see more. Take care and stay safe. Theresa
Thanks so much for watching, commenting and for subscribing Theresa - much appreciated :)
Lovely pages!Thanks Kylie!
Thank you so much Katharina :)
Beautiful backgrounds and happy reminder of the Dylusion paints I’ll be pulling out again🥰
Thanks so much Judith. I'm so glad I pulled the Dylusions out to use and they worked so well that I'm now temped to buy more - I do have the orange colour so might add red and yellow to that. There again I don't need more paints. Oh my! there's an argument going on in my head now lol. Thanks for watching and commenting :) xo
Love your boards. Would not have thought to use the black first. Love the subtle way it shows up. Thanks for sharing your process💕
Thanks so much Sherry - I think that adding the black in the background helps add depth to pages
I like to see you through the process!
Many thanks for sharing!
Keep safe!
Thank you so much Sónia :)

Looks like fun-can't wait to get started. I really like the black &white. think I will make those as neutral backgrounds for future projects.
Thanks so much Christie - glad it gave you some ideas :)
These are great! I love mixed media.
Thanks so much Kay :)
Lovely backgrounds 🌺. I have those exact first 2 stencils too lol.....great layering. Looking forward to part 2

Would never of thought to put down black first! Def be trying this 😁.
Thanks so much Lynda - I like to do that to create depth :)
These turned out so gorgeous Kylie. Love how you put the black down first. Looks so nice 😊💚
Thanks so much Bonny and Clive - the black as the first layer really works well to give it depth. Many thanks to you for watching and commenting :)
Fabulous tutorial and I now have new ideas to try. Thank you so much!!!
Many thanks Lynn - glad you've got new things to try :)
Love your backgrounds.
Thanks so much Suzanne :)
Thank you so much Kylie, I really really love ❤️ these master boards, I really will attempt to make some of my own. Time is always an issue for me.

I always learn so much when I watch you Kylie. Love this starting with the black. Can't wait to have a go. Thanks for sharing.
Many thanks Lori - starting with the black helps to add depth to the piece :)

I love each unique background! Gorgeous 💗
Thank you so much Amanda
I love this. I have very bad anxiety I think this would help me.
Thank you for watching and commenting - I hope you try it and I hope it helps you. Best wishes to you 💗
I really like the black and white before you added the color, the colored ones are OK but I really like that black and white great tutorial.
Thanks so much Gwen - the black and white was certainly stunning in its own right :)
I have just found you...WoW
So very WoW.
I love you masterboards/backgrounds 😍😍

Great master boards and a nice range of colours it will be interesting to see what you have planned for them.
Thanks so much Martin - I'm looking forward to the projects now :)
brilliant
Just gorgeous... :)
Thanks so much Kay :)
Fabulous. Thank you ❤️
Many thanks Judith :)
I am looking forward to getting to see what you use these master boards for. I like doing them but they sit around forever because they do not suit the style of journal I tend to make and I am not sure what type of journal they would look good in.
Hi Janice - I have a couple (maybe even three) videos coming up showing how I am using these. Hopefully that might give you some ideas. What style of journal do you make? :)
Great video, different approaches to making these backgrounds. I am curious as to what "makes" of paints you use, and where I can purchase them.
Many thanks Elizabeth. The Dylusion paints (the ones I blended together) come in a range of colours and are available from many places online. I think I got mine from Amazon but they are also available from Craftstash, Art From The Heart and many others. I've not seen them in any actual 'real life' shops anywhere near where I am. The craft acrylics I have are different makes including Pebeo, Hobbycraft's own brand, Americana, Artiste, and Crafter's Acrylic. Most of these I bought through Amazon, Hobbycraft or The Range. I just had a look at The Range website and they have them at a reasonable price just now at £1.25 (though Metallics and pearl paints are more expensive at £1.99). And of course they are available in lots of places online. I know that Arteza also do a set of 20 Craft Paints and it looks like they are a good price just now - I haven't tried them but going by their other products I would expect them to be a good quality (if you need more info on them let me know.) I think craft acrylics are good as they come in many different colours, shades etc and their size means that they don't take up a lot of space. My biggest issue with them is the cost - they are generally a lot less expensive in the US especially with sales and discounts. Sometimes if the likes of Hobbycraft has offers on for other acrylics such as Pebeo, Daler Rowney, Sennelier, or their own brand paints then per ML these can sometimes be not much more expensive. But not at the moment! Hobbycraft's own brand acrylic paint works out at just a little bit more at £2.00 for 75ml but you will get a slightly thicker paint for that. So, it's pretty good value just now. I hope this is helpful and if you do want to ask any more about paints then please let me know. :)
Very nice and I love your accent!
Thank you so much Esther :)

Loved this so much... are you able to advise where you got the stencil at 7.15 mins (flower one without square edges) that you made the fantastic black and white page you said you loved before you put colour on... thanks and have subscribed.
Hi Trish - thanks so much for your kind comment and your sub - much appreciated. The flower stencil is 'The Crafters Workshop Flower Frenzy 6x6 Inch Stencil'. I think I bought mine from Amazon UK but I had a quick look online just now and it seems to be available in quite a few places. It looks like it's currently being sold for around £6 / US$8. I've had it a few years now and use it quite a bit so to me it has been value for money. Hope that helps. :)
@@KylieCooStudio thank you so much for your efforts to let me know and also look for one for me. I have now found several. Will find the best one for postage to Australia.
These are great backgrounds Kylie, you showed a lot of really nice ideas. Will start to make some tomorrow. Thanks for showing! Loved the sound of the snow. It's been snowing here (centre of the Netherlands) a few days, just small flakes, but continuously, so we are in a white world at the moment. Hugs and take care.
Hi Tonia - thanks so much for your kind comment. I saw that the Netherlands was having its worst snow in a decade. It snowed more here overnight maybe around 15cm and it's been snowing off and on all day today. Take care and hugs for you too
@@KylieCooStudio Hi Kylie, We had quite some snow in the Netherlands, in some places a little, in some places A LOT (up till 25 cm was measured). Due to the (harsh and cold) wind, there were locally big differences. In our garden (5x10 m) we measured from about 3 up till 15 cm, because the wind was blowing the snow around in circles. I hope you understand what I mean. So, a lot of snow, but not as severe as in Scotland at the moment I think. These days a lot of people are hoping it will freeze long enough to go iceskating, but with covid it will be difficult keeping distance, so a lot of possible rivers and lakes are being closed down by the authorities. It is beautiful sunny, although cold, weather so we try to walk every day. Keep warm, healthy and safe. Hugs.
Yes I know what you mean - we would call that snow drifts - where the snow is blown by the wind and settles against wall and doors or by the side of roads. Take care. Hugs
Very nice 💜🧚♀️
Thank you so much 🤗 xo
