Hi everyone and welcome to another Terrific Tuesday!

Today’s project is part two of ways  that you can use background stamps.  Today I simply use it as a watermark image by embossing with clear embossing powder.  I also demonstrate the inlay technique.  All the details are in my video below. 

Here is a picture of today’s card.

I chose to use the Burlapback ground stamp and paired it with the burlap ribbon to give this card a country theme

Before I share my video with you, I want to remind you of the Stampin’ Up!! colors that will be leaving May 31st. If you have ink pads and need refills, or need one or two more packs of your favorite color I suggest you order them ASAP!  They are available while supplies last. Place your order online or email me at kim@kimsbasementbunch.com  

As a reminder, here are the colors that will be leaving:


As most of you know, this past week was our dance recital for the girls.  It’s always a FUN weekend but also a bitter sweet time for us.  They have both worked so hard and we are so very proud of both of them and all their accomplishments this past year.  

Here are some pictures after the first recital.  SO PROUD!!
