TLC510 ~ Scrappy Backgrounds ~ (12/01/14)

[joan ervin]

Hello everyone!!! Hope you had a great weekend and are ready to do a little stamping!!! Are you up for a challenge??? I'm your hostess for this weeks TLC and I have an easy challenge for you....we are going to use up some of those patterned paper scraps that you just can't throw away. My challenge to you is to create a background with scraps of paper....card stock or patterned paper.


You can:
1. Use stripes horizontal, vertical, or diagonal
2. Use a patchwork or quilt pattern
3. Use random shapes for an artsy look or a crazy quilt look
4. Use only patterned paper, only cardstock, or mix them up!!
5. Sew the pieces on or glue them...what ever works for you!!
6. Make sure at least half of the background is covered with at least 3 or more different colored or designer papers.
7. Have Fun!!!


My Sample


Merry Christmas

Had a hankering for one of my DS's excellent burgers- so I created this card with a scrappy background. Used my new BBQ Man and hamburger stamps from Hambo, and added some yarn and floss, along with a candy cane for the season, and some metallic adhesive pearls. Here's BBQ Man
