Hello stampers and happy Monday to you. Simple stamping for easy backgrounds! Today I am sharing some easy cards that you can make with creating your own stamped backgrounds. I used the Color & Contour stamp set with Blueberry Bushel and Lemon Lolly.
Here is a closeup of the stamped background. You could do it with or without the dotty stamp.

Do you see the blue mat behind the “I’m just so happy for you”? That is the piece that was cut off from the card above! This was the result of my impatience. I needed a mat for my sentiment but the only piece of Blueberry Bushel cardstock that I had nearby was already cut and scored into a card! I cut a piece off the one end and then couldn’t bear to throw the rest of the card away or cut it up, so I designed the card above with it. Here you can also see what the background stamping looks like without the “dotty” stamp. Which one is your favourite?
For the card below I chose to keep it cleaner by omitting the blue mat and using a scalloped stitched die instead from the Scalloped Contours dies. I also fussy cut one of the flowers from the stamped background to pop up on the lower left hand corner. This is a stepped up version of the last card. Do you know where the saying is from? Check out the Good Feelings stamp set and see how you can use it for background stamping here.
Video Tutorial
Here is a video tutorial for these cards, but you can also check out this “short” on YouTube to see the background stamping done in Berry Burst.
