Make Your Own Background

SDC127To make your own background, take a piece of Whisper White CS and stamp several images all over it in different colors. They can even overlap some, too. It is a very simple technique and can make some very beautiful backgrounds.

For this card, I used I (Heart) Hearts with Perfect Plum, Pretty in Pink, Pear Pizazz and Whisper White ink. Then I ran a piece of Perfect Plum CS through the Big Shot with the Square Lattice Textured Impressions Folder. I also ran the front of the card through the Big Shot with the Perfect Polka Dots Textured Impressions Folder. It really added to the beauty of the background.

Supplies used:

  • Cardstock – Perfect Plum, Pretty in Pink, Pear Pizazz, Whisper White
  • Ink – Perfect Plum, Pretty in Pink, Pear Pizazz
  • Stamps – I (Heart) Hearts, Because I Card
  • Accessories – Perfect Polka Dots and Square Lattice Textured Impressions Folders, Scallop Trim Border Punch, Scallop Oval Punch, Large Oval Punch, White Taffeta Ribbon
