Creating Backgrounds Part 2

It is really amazing what you can do by starting out with a plain, white piece of cardstock!
This photo gives you a little overview of some of the products you will need to start creating this background. The stamp comes from a set by TJ Designs. These are rubber stamps with a cling backing, the "abc" image is what you see on the long piece of acyrlic.

1. All I did was ink the "abc" stamp with the black ink and stamp it over and over to fill my paper. You see here one of my absolutely more favorite NEW finds - Memories Mists! I love the colors, the intensity of the colors and the way they spray. You get a fine, centered mist with these.

2. I used this red and yellow and sprayed my piece of white paper that is stamped. Just like that, it is wonderful! You can see that I sprayed most of the paper with the yellow and then sprayed portions of it with the red.
3. To finish off my background, I just stamped some additional images here and there to create a collage style look.

The close-up shows you the adorable little girl stamp that is my main focus on my card and it also gives you a great look at the way these mists spray.

4. I stamped the little girl on plain, white cardstock and then I cut out a simple mask to protect her while I sprayed the mists on that piece too.

If you haven't checked this out lately, you just have to go take a peek at the amazing images that TJ Designs is offering! And, I previously mentioned how much I love their packaging.
