I have been messing about with my Stamparatus and various background stamps this week. I love being able to re-stamp these large images to achieve a richer, more colour saturated look. Here are a couple of the projects I came up with.
To recreate the checked magnolia cards you will need;
Thick Whisper White card base 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Whisper White cardstock 5 ½” by 3 ¾”
Seaside Spray card base 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Blueberry Bushel cardstock 5⅝” by 3⅞”
Whisper White cardstock 5 ½” by 3 ¾” x 3
Scrap Whisper White
Using the Stamparatus I stamped the large Buffalo Check image in Seaside Spray ink onto one of the Whisper White panels. I repeated the stamping with another panel of Whisper White and Blueberry Bushel ink.

The large magnolia bloom was then stamped over the top of both panels in Memento Tuxedo Black. To get a good dark image these were stamped 2 or 3 times.
I die cut both the magnolias using the Magnolia Memory dies.

I mounted the Seaside Spray checked panel to the Blueberry Bushel layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I added the Blueberry Bushel magnolia into the negative space on Dimensionals and added the whole piece to the Seaside Spray card base. The sentiment was stamped in Seaside Spray ink.

I glued the die cut Seaside Spray checked Magnolia to the remaining Whisper White layer, wrapped a piece of ⅛” Blueberry Bushel Grosgrain Ribbon around the bottom of the layer. The sentiment was stamped in Blueberry Bushel ink and the entire layer added to the Thick Whisper White card base on Dimensionals.

I love the way these cards turned out, can’t wait to try it out with other background stamps. I hope you like them.
