Hello friends! Welcome to the Birch Background Edition of Stamp Review Crew.

I’m a huge background stamp collector. I have so many and can’t refuse adding more to my collection. Birch is an oldie but goodie. It’s beautiful. I paired it with the Nuts About Squirrels stamp set for a fun fall squirrel card.

What is the Stamp Review Crew? We are an international group of paper crafters that get together to feature and review a single Stampin’ Up! stamp set on the first and third Monday of each month. All of our previous stamp set reviews are archived. Click here to see all of the hops!

Ready for more inspiration using this stamp set? Next up is Heidi. Be sure to go through the hop to see what ALL my talented friends have created using this set. Thanks in advance for taking the time to comment. I love to hear from you.

TGIF Challenges 299 - Birch Wood and Sweet Strawberry

January 14, 2021

Hello friends! This week the TGIF challenges team is playing around with Background stamps. Do you have a favorite? I LOVE background stamps and have so many. I collect them. Lol. My project today features the Birch Wood background stamp.

I’ve stamped the Birch wood in a white ink on Crumb Cake cardstock. The strawberry images are from the Sweet Strawberry stamp and punch bundle.

Tip: See the little flower centers? These were created by 1. coloring each flower center with a Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blend. 2. Adding a small dab of fine tip glue adhesive to the flower center. The glue dries hard, clear and raised creating a super fun embellishment.

Play along with us! More inspiration can be found on the TGIF Challenges Blog. Happy Stamping.

Birch - Stamp Review Crew

August 18, 2019

Welcome to the Birch Edition of Stamp Review Crew. I love background stamps. What could be better than a really large stamp? When I say I love them, I really do. I have a collection. I never get rid of them. I’ve posted a few pictures of my collection at the end of this post.

This background stamp is the pattern of a Birch tree. I’ve used it on my card inside the stitched window. I’ve also created a couple of napkin rings. The Birch looks so real. Just like it was shed from a tree. Both projects also use the Beautiful Friendship stamp set.

Ready for more inspiration using this stamp set? Next up is Lou. Be sure to go through the hop to see what ALL my talented friends have created using this set. Thanks in advance for taking the time to comment. I love to hear from you.

August 12, 2019

Time for Global Design Project. Our challenge this week is a sketch challenge. I really love his sketch and there are so many great way it could be interpreted. I love the little flag element and decided to make this bigger for my focal point. I decided to use the Birch Background stamp and the Beautiful Friendship stamp sets. I love these two set together, they really work! The flowers are stamped in Calypso Coral and Petal Pink my two go to favorite colors. The Birch has been stamped off in Gray Granite for a more subtle look.

Hello! I rarely show my face on here but I thought I’d pop in between cards and say hello from Stampin’ Up! OnStage in Raleigh!!! My crafty HEART is so full catching up with old and new friends. The people are always the best part of any experience, especially this one. I feel so lucky to catch up with my upline, old co-workers, the Artisan gals from various years, Monday Montage, TGIF challenges crew and even a sprinkle of Global Design Project peeps. So many lovely people who make my life better! It’s rare to find a place where you know so many people from decades of your life. Yay for stamping! I won’t spam you with all the many photos but here are a few. Yes, I’m usually a dork. ❤️❤️❤️

My fav… pulling out an OLD stamp set from the stash to create a custom background. I played with type to match the background to the primary image using simple watercolor and stamps. Paint and stamp in same color. Easy. Color is Blackberry Bliss. Stamp sets are Stampin’ Up! oldies but goodies: Rough Type & PS I Love You. #stampinup #cardmaker #cardmaking #cardmakersofinstagram #useyourstash #cardmakingideas #cardmakingreels #papercrafting #handmadecard #cardmakingchallenge

All time favorite stamp set? How about favorite of the month? Year? I have so many "favs" and they rotate. Today we are sharing projects using our favorite stamp sets from our stash. There are certain stamp themes that I am certain to buy and keep. Any stamp set with a typewriter... or camera image, purchased! I have loads. On this card I used two typewriter themed stamp sets. 'Rough Type', which is and old alphabet stamp set. Remember those? It seems like we don't have many aphabet stamp set options anymore. Good thing I kept so many around ... The typewriter image is from a stamp set called 'P.S. You're the Best'. Check out what my friends created using their favorite STASH stamps sets!
