Hardwood Background
Background stamps are a great way to add texture to cards. The Hardwood background stamp in the Occasions Mini has made its way to my collection and you will be seeing more of it on future projects. After stamping the background image in Basic Gray ink on white cardstock and choosing Bermuda Bay as the card base, I wondered what I would do next. But it did not take too long before I stamped and punched colorful flowers from the Flower Shop stamp set. To the flowers I added a few leaves created using one of the Secret Garden framelits. After arranging the pieces on the "fence" I added a little vine from the Bird Builder punch and a couple of butterflies. I have a few ideas floating around in my head as to how I will be using this background stamp~~possibilities are endless! Have a great day and be careful if you are out and about!
I am married (50 years now~~oh my!) and have two children:
Jen and Matt. Jen and her husband blessed us with a beautiful granddaughter who is now 19 years old. I am also a "grandma" to five dogs, 2 birds and more! My dog, Charlie, is our spoiled Shihtzu and I have a cute little parrotlet, Nipper, that is 8 years old.
