Default ***Favorite Background Stamp***

I am starting to get into background stamps now and am waiting for my first one, Filigree, and then I want to get French Script and Just Jeans. What are some of yours and do you have any suggestions?

Canvas is very flexible as it goes with lots of cards. I love French Script to use w/ florals & botanicals; softswirls for wedding, florals and baby cards; and just a thought here - many of the wheels make great backgrounds when done on a diagonal.

I only have 2 right now, which I really like a lot - Safari and Bamboo II. I've used these with In the Wild and Kanji (cased ideas from SCS for Kanji ). I would like to get Canvas, Soft Swirls and By Definition !!!

I only have a few bk stamps, but I use my stipple plaid more than any other.
Of course, I just received French script (everything done with it is so pretty!) and I have Canvas on its way to me - so this may change.....

I have a background obsession! I use one on most cards I make. I have Canvas, French Script, Soft Swirls, Stipple Plaid, Filagree, Bitty Blossoms, and retired Musical Score, Pretty Paisley, Script, and Victorian Lace. That doesn't even count the small background sets I own ,like Itty Bitty Backgrounds, Background Basics and Petite Patterns. If my budget would allow , I would own EVERY background stamp that SU! sells!!! But if I must pick a favorite ( oh this is hard, like picking which child is my favorite!), I would have to say the retired Script is my old favorite . But Canvas is my new favorite. It's so versatile,I can use it on almost everything!!!
Happy Stamping! :lol:

CANVAS!!!!!!!

I also have soft swirls ( a mistake impluse purchase, IMO ), French Script (which I use tons for coasters ), and groovy lines (a fun one).

I also have 2 retired ones...Old World Map - a great masculine one, and Script - a nice Irish one.

Canvas, of course, but also Simple Stripes. I just looked in the gallery and it isn't even listed (?) but I find it adds so much to a card . . .

Stipple Plaid and French Script were always my favorite. Then along came Canvas. . . I love this stamp.

Default I have to choose one or two?????

I would have to say that I use Canvas, by definition, and french script the most...

But having two drawers full, I feel like I am "dissing" the rest of them!

French Script, By Definition & Canvas.

I love Canvas, too. Just got it and have had a blast with it. I have to say, though, that Soft Swirls has been a favorite. It has been great with any Valentine card I've made, and it also goes great with Cute as a Bug and Ladybug Picnic. As for smaller background stamps, Itty Bitty is my favorite. VERY versatile.

Canvas is a must because you can use it for just about anything. I also love French Script.

I love the Canvas BG. I used to love stipple plaid, but now my style is starting to change with the canvas. I think I want By Definition next, but French script has caught my eye when I look through the gallery. Guess I need them all now! SCS has really opened my eyes to these BG stamps.

I love my canvas! Of course they are carrying it through.(YEAH!!) I was bummed I would of had to stop demo-ing it after Feb.

Canvas got me addicted to backgrounds I had to get Just Jeans & Safari. I know there will be more to come on my wish list.

I love French Script, Harlequin, Fililgree, Antique Cracking... etc.

However, my absolute favorite is retired (boo hoo!) ------ Leafy Glade! Love that stamped with Versamark and brushed with an interference Pearl Ex. Stunning!
