    I am going to make this so is there something else i could use? Is mountboard easy to cut?

    I think its a bit thicker than chipboard I cut through it with a craft knife. I used it for making memo boards last year like the ones CT & Flourgirl have made this year

    kms I use mountboard and cut it with a craft knife same as dragonllew. You can buy off cuts on ebay. Or if you have a shop that makes picture and photo frames near where you live, they might have some offcuts.

    You can try your local picture framer for mount board too I know mine does sometimes sell "offcuts" or odd sizes at reduced price.
