I love background stamps. I have used them as a background, stamped them with one ink, have even embossed them with embossing powder and even spot light an image on it. Any way you use them they are easy to make a background. The card today was stamped and the images was bleached. Another fun technique

- Now here is where you need to be careful. Pour a little bit of household bleach in a small container. Pick up the bleach with the blender pen (I have one that is dedicated specifically for bleach only) Be careful not to drip on your work. Now color the flower petals with the bleach. You will see the color begin to change immediately.
- Tie bakers twine and bow to card front.
- Stamp greeting with Memento Black ink on Basic White and trim to size
- Add dimensional to the back of the art panel as well as the back of the greeting and complete your card.
