[@lisagheno-cuevas6191]

Pure fun! I love how you use the extra pieces that were cut from stamped backgrounds to make additional cards. Every card was an exciting revelation!

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much!

[@venitabucceri8435]

Noooooo!!!!!! Don't make me choose!!!!! They are all positively BEAUTIFUL, Ardyth❣❣❣

[@ardyth]

Hahaha! Thanks for watching!

[@MaryEllen505]

Oh my goodness! That "rescued card" is awesome!

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much - so often mistakes are really design opportunities! lol! Thanks for watching!

[@dizzinese]

Oh Ardyth! Every video I watch I think of so many supplies I have never used! In 2 years I really stocked up my supplies. I had started over 20 years ago but was a single mom and never built up my supplies. It’s amazing what I have now but more amazing how much I have never used! I don’t recall ever using a regular background stamp! Only a text one. Great video!😊

[@ardyth]

Thanks for watching, Denise!

[@roxanneklinger3828]

I just found this tutorial and I was floored. I loved it! I think of dots as boring but wow, I'm not bored now. I especially loved the watercolor dots background. And the inked and then gold embossed leaves are my favorite. Thanks Ardyth.

[@ardyth]

So glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!

[@bridgetn2575]

Oh, wow! I love the white border with the floating leaves! And the small dots with the watercolor dots! So beautiful 😊 TFS 🙂

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much 😊

[@bethjackson8727]

My favourite is the second card. I love the touch of individual leaves. Perfect. All your ideas are marvellous. Your ideas always give me inspiration.

[@ardyth]

That is a wonderful compliment! I'm so glad you are inspired! Thanks for watching!

[@moirahansen1955]

Really like the one with leaves and also the one with big and small dot. Thank you for all the ideas. 👏💕🇿🇦

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much 😊

[@carla109]

I really like how your "mistake" card turned out. Cutting it into strips and reversing every other one is genius! I'm also a sucker for your double polka dot card. 😊

[@ardyth]

Mistakes almost always turn into 'design opportunities'! lol! Thanks so much for watching!

[@jrf412]

oh Same - I like the strips. nice surprise

[@raeannoh]

The 'rescued' print that you cut and rearranged in strips turned out amazing. That's my favorite. Thanks for all the great ideas.

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much!

[@tariristorcelli8273]

You brought even the simplest background stamps to life in this video. Fun to see the different ways they were used. I will have to search my stash and see what I can do with mine thanks

[@ardyth]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!

[@colleenkramer1808]

WOW WOW WOW! Absolutely love the full leaf background! Thanks Ardyth--such great inspiration.

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much!

[@kittykerver5043]

I love-love-love dots, so the dotted cards are my favourite. Thank you for all the inpiration you gave in this video!

[@ardyth]

Oh, have I got a video for you coming up! lol! Thanks so much for watching!

[@judyhartmann3071]

These are great techniques! My favorite one is the gold and blue that you cut into strips & rearranged! Thanks for sharing.

[@ardyth]

Thank you!

[@nurseratchet8566]

Always a jam packed video with awesome techniques and beautiful cards. I love the leaves and the Tombow dots💖

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much for watching!

[@zuzanaoravcova9435]

I love that colour combination on the card with many small leaves!

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much!

[@carloshaun7297]

I have to get out my background stamps and give these ideas a whirl! You are SO creative, Ardyth! Thank you!

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much, Carlos!

[@pennyf9886]

Color combos are super modern, love love love. thank you for sharing your expertise.

[@ardyth]

Thank you so much!

[@marilynm2661]

You can never go wrong with a polka dot background!

[@ardyth]

I agree completely! Thanks for watching!

[@Rebeccacell]

Love the one with the leaves square and the scattered leaves. Very cool

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much Rebecca! 😊

[@annekeschep8148]

Wow, so many awesome ideas! I can honestly not say which is my favorite, but I can tell you I want all the stamps, LOL!!!!

[@ardyth]

Haha! Thanks so much for watching!

[@leaamherst]

Wow Ardith, these are so fun. This video is jam packed with wonderful ideas! Thank you so much!!

[@ardyth]

Glad you like them! Thanks for watching!

[@expressivepaper]

Love the Square card. All are gorgeous.

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much, Kathy!

[@mtaylor_creations]

Lots of cute cards, love the large polka dot background 😍

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much!

[@fullermoments]

Your idea's.....Are mind blowing...in beauty, texture, diversity of unexpected styles....I literally can just play with this video as inspiration and get several types of cards that will surprise and delight everyone on my card list this holiday! Thank you for your tremedous artful efforts🥰

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@cathymorris8072]

Wow! So many ideas. The leaves & dots are tons of fun!

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much!

[@usharaj9208]

I really like the leaves background cards. That was sooo cleaver to cut the leaves and use then in another card.

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much!

[@dorothykovak4900]

Wow! Wonderful cards. The one one you had to ‘rescue’ blew me away. I look forward to the next installment of background stamp ideas. Thanks for sharing.

[@ardyth]

Thank you so much!

[@shirleyh9583]

Thank you for sharing these creative ideas for background stamps. Now I'll get more use out of those just "must have" backgrounds that I haven't used very often.

[@ardyth]

That's exactly where the idea for this video started - I still have a few more that need some love.... Thanks so much for watching!

[@Maricruz1671]

You did it again! Loved them all, but my favorite is the one with leaves 👍.

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much 😊

[@bittyscloset]

So pretty...I am new to cardmaking and you not only inspire me, but have taught me so much. Thank you❣

[@ardyth]

That's a big compliment! Thanks so much!

[@BearHarmony]

Ardyth, I have so been enjoying ALL of your videos! TYSM, from a fellow Canadian in BC! Truly you inspire so many with all of your videos jam packed with ideas and techniques and the beautiful cards that always result! :)

[@ardyth]

Thank you so much!

[@wandaxxxx7406]

I don't have any background stamps yet but you have given me alot of inspiration. Love how all your cards turned out. TFS

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much - you can 'build your own' backgrounds with small stamps and still use some of these techniques! Thanks for watching!

[@conniewoldstad9942]

Thank you for sharing this. I love those leaves you made three cards from. Excellent tips. I really like the shadows you added. Beautiful cards.

[@ardyth]

Thank you so much!

[@lindavinson1273]

Wow! These cards are all awesome. I love your save card. That card came out very elegant. Thank you for sharing! 🥰

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much!

[@coolstamper]

The leaves card is also my fav!!! 💕🌸💕

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much for watching!

[@gailowens1925]

I enjoy your videos very much. I especially like your cheerful disposition!

[@ardyth]

Aw, that's very nice! Thank you so much! It's easy to be cheerful when I'm crafting! lol! Thanks for watching!

[@amyswares]

Oh my gosh those watercolor dots! Great ideas and vid. Well done ;)

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@jamiewatts3895]

I love your teaching and sharing! Thankful for Craft Roulette!

[@ardyth]

Me too! What a great idea from Mary and Stephen! So glad you enjoyed the video!

[@patriciadelany6699]

Oooooh! I love the tip about using a foil lined box lid to emboss! Definitely am going to make that! Also, now I understand why you would use the misti corners….

[@ardyth]

I admit the corners are underused in my craft room, but this was definitely a perfect time for them! Thanks so much for watching!

[@lindalincks6187]

Great cards and so much inspiration!! Loved the leaves and big dots!! Thank you for sharing 😊

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much!

[@andrewandberthapilgrim999]

As usual, great ideas here Ardyth. I really love that fussy cut leaf card.

[@ardyth]

It was definitely worth the work! Thanks so much!

[@annettefertitta6868]

The foil lined lid is genious!

[@ardyth]

Thank you!

[@olivemaycards]

I got lots of ideas for using the couple of background stamps I have (and the watercolor powders I have but never use) and then I started building my shopping list of background stamps I want to buy. I live those basic you show. The watercolor polka dots turned out so cool. And that closely spaced line one looks very useful. And the turnabout dots, and the geometric and the leaves…

[@ardyth]

I have to re-do that watercolor powder one because when I get it right, it looks really good! Thanks so much for watching!

[@GerrysCraftRoom]

Great ideas as always and jampacked with tips, you are a “stamping queen” for sure, sounds like a song, lol 🎶 🎵 tsf😍😘

[@ardyth]

Haha! Now that song is in my head.... Thanks for watching!

[@GerrysCraftRoom]

@@ardyth yay, that was my intention, lol🤣

[@vickidavis4207]

You are so creative! I love all the backgrounds but my favorite is the leaves. Genius. 💖

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much for watching!

[@KimberlyInSoCal310]

You have the best ideas! These all turned out so nice, even the one you said you "wrecked." Just lovely cards. I have quite a number of Concord & 9th Turnabout Stamps and haven't even used one of them; this video makes me want to get out the inks and give my Turnabouts a try! TFS! 👍💖

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much! 😊 I usually find that mistakes are just design opportunities. Enjoy your turnabouts - such a genius idea from them! Thanks for watching!

[@cindyellis765]

Gorgeous cards out of super ideas. Love your videos. My fave is the leaves. It speaks to my glitz.

[@ardyth]

Mine too! Thanks so much for watching!

[@IshaniScards]

Amazing ideas.. and great cards Ardyth. Your videos are like .. food for thought!

[@ardyth]

That is the best compliment! Thanks for watching, Ishani!

[@ardyth]

Oh, that is a very nice thing to say! Thanks so much!

[@mecheledunlap4301]

Loved the leaves but all the cards are wonderful!

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much for watching!

[@eclaws13]

I love those leaves! They are absolutely beautiful. The teal really pops of that page. What a great idea that I got from you to use the foil lined lead with embarrassing. Couldn’t find my foil so I just grabbed a square foil pan. Works just as good. Thanks for the tip.

[@ardyth]

Oh that's a great idea! Glad you were able to make it work for you! Thanks for watching!

[@stephanieloughead4479]

Wow! So many wonderful ideas. I like using SSS memory foam. I can transfer so many patterns with any colour.

[@ardyth]

I am not sure if I've seen that - is it like Simon Hurley's Stamping Foam? He definitely makes it look really cool! I'll have to give it a try! Thanks for watching!
