Default Why you need Canvas background stamp....

Ladies, ya gotta get this background stamp. First of all, LunarLana will make you want it when you see her cool samples. I think Just Jeans is getting jealous.

Secondly, it makes the cardstock look textured like you can almost "feel" it. I have always loved Bazzill brand cardstock for it's texture (not to mention the fabulous color selection) and wished SU would have a textured cardstock. But, the kicker is that stamped images would probably not work well on the textured cardstock. Well here is our answer. If you use tone on tone colors or versamark, it looks very much like Bazzill cardstock. I just might use this on every single card I make.....okay, maybe not. Okay, so there's my plug for Canvas background. I love it!!

Thanks Michelle for your opins... I pre-ordered 4 sets from the winter mini (got them yesterday) but the Canvas wasn't one of them. I like it, but I think I'm going to wait until I put in my Christmas gift order in Dec. 'cause I want to see what people do with it here first!

You are right, I've seen LunarLana's cards with it and they are terrific!

That's the exact reason why I can't wait to order it. If I could only count the money I have spent on Bazzill! I have a w/s next weekend, and I am going to have to order it with some of my earnings.

I bet the canvas background would look cool if it was embossed...almost like magic mesh maybe?

Now I have to buy it

Ditto! After seeing Lana's sample it is now a must have.

I agree - my hands are itching to try it embossed - FABULOUS idea!!!!!!

Every time I see a sample with it, I think the person used Bazzill. I love Bazzill!!! I can't wait to get it.

I don't know WHY there is all this discussion about why you need the canvas background set.

The answer is soooooo simple: Because you DON'T HAVE IT YET!!!! :lol:

All this "peer pressure" is hard on my checkbook! :shock:

I knew I wanted it when I saw it in the mini, but after seeing everyone's cards now I know that I HAVE to HAVE it!

Yep, it's definitely on my list. I'm still trying to hold off to order until Dec.1 but dang you ladies are making it tough!

By the way, I got my winter mini today that I had SU mail to me. I put myself in as a customer on the customer selector so it means my customers are probably starting to get them. So you non-demos will be soon be able to see what us demos have been talking about.
