Default FFA541 Double Down Background 7.3.20

Hello!

Ready for a new challenge?

My challenge today is to take two background stamps and layer them in two different colors.

Keyword: F4A541

Uploading: Remember the keyword is without spaces. Use a comma between keywords with a space after each comma.


If you are new to the challenges, please feel free to do this one or ANY of the challenges at any time. There is no time limit. They are not races to see who can do one first, nor are they contests of any sort. All the challenges are simply to provide inspiration and to get us stamping!

2. In this thread, click on reply and type anything you want to show before the link.

4. Click EDIT. Click COPY
5. Go back to this thread. Click PASTE.
You�re done!

Doubling backgrounds was so popular in the 00's. Like I did back then, Canvas was one of the backgrounds. Super fun!

Did things a bit differently, first background stamp had water spritzed on it. This is a cool idea! Also for the crescendo VSN:

Smile F4A541 nap or two

For today's double down background challenge I used 2 floral stamps for my frame. My central panel is dry embossed and paper pieced, Added a fussy cut dog image and sentiment block. Here's nap or two

Smile F4A541 flowers bloom

for my second challenge card I went with several techniques- first embossing, then direct to wax paper inkpad swipes, followed by spritzing for my central flower. Added a double stamped background, and a hand written sentiment block Here's flowers bloom

Did you know the link above takes you to FFA541 instead of F4A541?
Here is my double down background. Love the name by the way. <br \

Gallery is misnamed, none of our cards are going there. Should be F4A541, not FFA541.

This challenge requires you to use two background stamps and layer them in two different stamping colors. My first stamp uses a tone-on-tone technique and stamps Gorgeous Grape inked bitty stars onto the Purple Posie card front. My second BG stamping is a bit more subtle. It is a stream of a bit larger, open-design stars stamped with Silver Metallic ink. The stamping starting at the top right and ends up under the silver die-cut flourish traveling at an angle to the bottom left corner of the card. If you look closely, you can see the last silver stamped star peeking under the organdy sheer ribbon.

Here is my card: Christmas Stars Shining on High--PURPLE!
