i just got my first 3 backgrounds today and my jaw hit the floor when i opened the box. these beauties are HUGE! i've always seen the posts, knew the dimensions but it didnt really hit me till i got them in my hot little hands.
i have got to get more!!!!
the only thing that sucks is i cant play with them tonight wahhhhhhhh.
its my turn at work to do a Saturday shift which means i have to get up way earlier than normal so off to bed for me to dream about these stamps sitting on my desk.
Sitting here wondering if I ought to make another Feb order and get that background in the Winter Mini.... then there is On The Spot, Flannel and Well Worn Words that I have been eyeballing for a while.
This all coming from someone who already has oodles of SU backgrounds! I think I have 25 current and retired SU backgrounds.
I love how they make my cheapie cardstock look so much nicer. I have linen, french script, dots & daisies, crosshatch and print pattern and I use them all the time. I love layering them. I'm so hooked on the background stamps that I just ordered 6 more today!
I like SU's backgrounds, but also like the ones from CHF. They are the same size (gigantic!) as SU's, they have such a huge variety, and they give you the option to purchase unmounted. Can't have too many bg stamps!!
Oh yes! I love the size! I saw a bg at a store I liked so I bought it, tried to use it once and it was waaaaaaaaaaaaaay to small... it didn't even cover a standard size card face. I was mad I wasted my money! From now on SU only. Or atleast SU sized only but I haven't seen any others from another company.
I LOVE SU BG stamps - so much so that I have all the ones in the current catalog except only *two*, and I have quite a few retired ones too. Why, oh why did they have to retire my Houndstooth and Linograph?? Sob... <G> I can't *wait* to see the BG stamps in the new catty come July!

I love my SU background stamps too. They are awesome if you do masking project. I used Weathered and masked it with the Wisecrack one about wrinkles and make great birthday cards for my friends. I'm collecting all of them a little at a time.
