Re: Advice Needed: Making Double-thickness Mountboard

I have done this in the past by using a bright red paper in the middle of the sandwich. Also mounting two layers of contrasting coloured papers on the top of a board. The effect is very pleasing. But having said that, it's sort of thing you do out of curiosity, stand back and say, "OOOOO! That looks good!"The Crofter wrote:My first thought would be to turn the join into a "feature" and not try to disguise it. Perhaps using a third board with a different coloured core and creating a sandwich. The join between each board would be visible but not obvious. A black core board in the middle could look stunning and certainly different. Can't speak from experience and this might be total carp but who knows
And then never use it again.
