Let us look at your projects using Cornish Heritage Farms backgrounders!
Hi everybody, I have been trying to make some decisions on which of the many wonderful Sonlight Impressions backgrounders sold by Cornish Heritage Farms I should prioritise buying. It has been a little difficult to find them in the gallery because many people will put "non-SU" instead of listing the company name for non-SU stamps. So, please post links to your creations using these wonderful backgrounders here and help make money fly out of my wallet! :-)
Your cards look great. I really like the mothers day card. I just added a couple to my gallery but they're pending approval. If I can figure out how to link, I'll do that here.
If you look at Retro Rak, Copper Wishes and My Girly Girl in my gallery, you will see the polka dot, weathered and striped, in that order!Joan B's Gallery at Splitcoaststampers

Great idea--thanks for gathering up some cards to view! I only have the Paisley stamp so far, but I'd love to order a few more, and these samples will help me decide, I hope! Here's my fav card made with paisley backgrounder: Gallery at Splitcoaststampers
Okay, here are mine. I am a little obsessed with the Paisley! It just goes with everything! I just lately stared using my Weathered BG and I haven't even used my Victorian Floral yet. Too occupied with the Paisley I guess!
By the way Debra, your card is fabulous! I am going to have to CASE! Thanks for sharing!
CASE away, oh paisley princess! You've got some pretty wonderful cards for
case-ing, yourself!..I really enjoyed looking at them, and getting new ideas.
Wow what beautiful cards! I will have lots of commenting to do later! (I'm at work now trying to avoid getting the Irish Superflu from my supervisor :P ) thank you for the kind words about my cards, lauraos! And I'm glad this thread is helpful to everyone! (less helpful to my budget, but oh well ).
I am really liking Rice Paper. burlap looks super, too, especially when stamped with chalk ink, but all I have are normal pigment and dye inks.
I see you found a few of mine already and had a question mark by some so here they are
I made the plaid by using the stripe in both directions. Plaid card
This is the stripe on the green portions Truck card
Stripes on the front of this Tri fold This is a stripe also in the yellow. I wondered why I got a comment on that card today!
I also have a victorian pattern but nothing that really shows it off in my gallery. Maybe I'll plan to use it so you can see it, we'll see how tomorrow goes.
There are lots more backgrounders out there, though, and I'm sure lots more examples too.
Thanks so much for all the info you gave u and the time you took to do it! Now I just have to decided what to buy besides the C. Wire. Did you buy any of them and did you buy them mounted or UM? Thanks!
Blessings,
Debbie

I have bought my two backgrounders unmounted, because they are less expensive than the mounted versions, they are cheaper to ship, and easier to store. I have just stuck the backgrounder on the back side of the poly hanging bag that came with the stamp, so that you can see the pattern on the insert through the bag on the front.
Lauraos, I will send you a pm on how to insert links to your cards! I think they are beautiful and need to be linked to!
This is other one I have that I haven't got a sample of. What a great way to use it Lisa, I've been a little at a loss with this one. I found it for about seventy five cents, good deal that I couldn't pass up! Thanks for the idea!
Mona Lisa . . .your work is beautiful . . .if I buy the other backgrounders I'll be able to produce work as pretty as your cards, right?
Well aren't you just sweet! And yes of course you can make beautiful cards, we all can! Here's the catch, most of my cards take 2-5 hours by the time I am *happy* with them. ;)

Thes backgrounds are so addicting. And all these great samples mean I just have to have more of them! I just a bunch in and here is one with the abstract background.
