Wacky Wednesday and new Rubber!
What’s the most versatile stamp you can own??? Why a background stamp, of course! You can use it so many different ways and it can look completely different each time.
Today Rubbernecker is releasing 7, count ’em, 7 new background stamps. Check it out HERE!!
So to celebrate, our Wacky Wednesday challenge for you is to use a background or border stamp on your card. When you upload it, link the card itself directly back to today’s post on the Rubbernecker blog.
I’ve chosen to use the Loose Weave background stamp. It just reminds me so much of spring grass that I used it on yet another Easter card! And it’s been awhile since I played along with the 2 Sketches 4 You sketch, so I incorporated that too. This week is Kazan’s sketch 23.
I’ve also used some of my new Prism papers and May Arts ribbon (available April 6) from Rubbernecker! How yummy! I’m having a great time with all these new goodies!!
You can get all the details here on this week’s challenge and how you can win a gift certificate for 25% off your next Rubbernecker order. Be sure to also follow the links to the other design team members’ blogs in order to see all the wonderful creations using the new background stamps!
