FEB11VSNO ~ Saturday, Feb 26 ~ 10:00pm EST ~ Background Music
Title: Background Music
Hostess: Diane (fionna51)
Keyword: FEB11VSNO
Day/Date: Saturday, Feb 26
Time: 10:00pm EST
I don't know about you but I find that I never have any good ideas for using my musical score background. With one exception  I have never liked anything that I made with it...but I love the stamp! I guess I could say the same about many of my big backgrounds. I have a whole drawer full of them...and they don't see much ink.
So here's your challenge:
Use a large background stamp, but you can't stamp the whole background of your card.
...Mask a space for stamping the background image.
...Punch or cut or tear out a section of the background image.
...Kiss an inked background stamp to your inked solid stamp.
...Use the background stamp any way that you like...EXCEPT as an overall background!
Extra credit if you incorporate a heart shape into your project...
VIEW THE GALLERY FOR THIS CHALLENGE {HERE}
UPLOADING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. ALL VSN CREATIONS MUST BE UPLOADED BY 8:00pm EST ON MONDAY, FEB 28
2. You have 45 minutes to complete the challenge.
3. Please remember to put in the correct keyword, FEB11VSNO , when uploading your image. Copying and pasting the challenge keyword is recommended to avoid typos.
It is also highly recommended that you post a link to your creation in this chat thread to be sure that your card is seen.
HERE'S SOME SAMPLES:

That's why I don't clean mine. I just stamp 'em off on scratch paper and put them away. I'm naughty. |

To tell you the truth...I take a little side trip to the sink and run them under the faucet for a few secs. Clean as a whistle!

Unless of course I use versamark or craft or something like that...and that calls for the OTHER sink with simple green and a toothbrush. I don't like dirty stamps ;)

If I could clean these things without getting 1/2 the ink on me, I'd be much more inclined to use them... any ideas ladies? scrubby is to small, baby wipe gets everywhere... thoughts? in any event, I endured my blue fingers, and came up with this:

Ah! Mine are all unmounted!
Even when I had them on the wood, a quickie run under water didn't seem to matter. __________________ Diane
