AFSS15 - Background StampsAre you horrible like me in that you have all these lovely background stamps collecting dust in your collection? This is the week to pull 'em out!
For tonight's offering, I thought Paisley deserved some exercise. I did a faux tear on the side (good tutorial here if you are interested), used my Paper Inspirations cone flower and then added a sentiment from Little Paper Shop's All Occasions set. Easy-peasy but it took me forever since there is no DP here (the horror!).
So, you know what I am gonna say now... Should you want to participate in this week's challenge, here's the rules:- Create a card and then link to it from this post.
- Should you elect to upload it to SCS, please use the keyword AFSS15.
- Get your entries in by 7 PM MST next Sunday and I will draw a winner who will receive some goodies from me!

Lovely card Allison,that bg stamp is beautiful!! Those colors you chose are gorgeous!!
I don't have any bg stamps,so I can't play,you should get rid of some of yours that are collecting dust and send one my way,joking,just kidding!!!!
Beautiful Allison! I haven't used backgrond stamps much but I do have a few and will pull them out to see what I can do for this weeks challenge!
Love that background stamp and how you did the tear, great card.
Oh - the faux tear is so neat!!! Love this card :)
That is fantastic!
I am just starting to "find" the backgrounders!! Another great challenge to challenge a challenger!! (whatever)
You mean those big stamps on my wall are suppose to be inked? I thought they were just so pretty all on their own! ArT! Ok, so I will pull one down this week and join in and ink one up! FUN!!! BTW I love you card, the colors are wonderful!
The twine is one of my favourites! This card could be one of mine-I love it. BTW, now yor brother's song of the day is Harriete's Magic Hats (thanks).
Very pretty card Allison!! I have TONS of these BG stamps and never get to use all the time! I did do a card with some BG stamping pictured on my blog combining other SCS challenges if you'd like to see it:

THIS IS GORGEOUS!!! WOW! I love everything about it!! I should do a background. I'm so bad at it.
Always fun to break out the backgrounders ... here's one using the Chalkboard Technique with shimmer chalks & the CHF lace backgrounder:

Love the card. Some of my favorite colors and I think it looks great even without designer paper!
Love the background and the torn edge, Allison! Gorgeous card.
I've given one of my background stamps some ink:

Great card, mine didn't turn out but I used the stamped flower image anyway. Its on my blog
That's really pretty.
I should get out some backgrounders and use them. Especially since I've been tempted by some new ones!
Well! I made something, not sure if it matches the criteria. Let me know. I love how you masked the background and made it look like different paper.
Sorry forgot to give you the link.
Here it is.
many forms
Oh my heavens, how stunning!
GORGEOUS card!!!
Cool card, I love how you tore the paper. I never think to do that.
Here is mine.
Finally got it done at the end of the week! Gotta run but here's my post:
