How to get MORE from BACKGROUND STAMPS!

[@janmarch5039]

I loved the “double dots” where you used both the big and small colored circles on your backgrounds…so cute and “just enough” color and texture. I so enjoy your video’s Ardyth, thanks for sharing all of your great ideas with us!

[@ardyth]

Thank you so much!

[@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 😊

[@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!

[@MaryEllen505]

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

[@ardyth]

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

[@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

[@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 😊

[@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!

[@venitabucceri8435]

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

[@ardyth]

Hahaha! 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!

[@colleenkramer1808]

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

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much!

[@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!

[@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!

[@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!

[@pamwhite1384]

Not sure why you don’t have more followers. This is excellent. By the way, what are you using to rub misti to make sure you don’t miss part of the stamping? Thanks.

[@CraftRoulette]

Ardyth creates excellent content!

[@ardyth]

Haha! If I build it, maybe they will come! lol! Thank you so much for watching and leaving your very kind comment. That 'tool' is a whiteboard eraser - it has a felt surface which moves smoothly over the MISTI door. In the winter, I just use my sleeve, but this tool is cheap and useful.

[@CraftRoulette]

I'd like to stress that it is tough to get subscriptions, and 16.2K is a really big deal!

[@ardyth]

@@CraftRoulette You are very sweet, Mary! Thank you! I'm just doing what I do. I'm happy where I am and happy to continue growing, too!

[@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!

[@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!

[@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!

[@Rebeccacell]

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

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much Rebecca! 😊

[@leaamherst]

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

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

[@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!

Haha! Thanks so much for watching!

[@expressivepaper]

Love the Square card. All are gorgeous.

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much, Kathy!

[@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!

[@cathymorris8072]

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

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much!

[@ardyth]

Thank you 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! :)

Thanks so much!

[@IshaniScards]

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

[@ardyth]

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

[@mtaylor_creations]

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

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much!

[@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!

[@aquilaclark814]

Thanks Ardith..Your Cards are beautiful🥰🥰

[@ardyth]

Glad you like them! Thanks for watching!

[@LoriUren]

Those are all awesome! I love the leaves and the happy dots! Tfs

[@annettefertitta6868]

The foil lined lid is genious!

[@ardyth]

Thank you!

[@Maricruz1671]

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

[@ardyth]

Thanks 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!

[@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!

[@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!

The leaves card is also my fav!!! 💕🌸💕

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much for watching!

[@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!

[@cindym9851]

Awesome ideas……now I’m going to have a play with mine!! Thanks for the inspiration!

[@ardyth]

That is the best kind of compliment! Enjoy! And thanks for watching!

[@CraftyDaze]

That background u colored in with the leaves is gorgeous. Will definitely do this technique for sure

[@ardyth]

Thanks so much - it takes some time, but I think it's worth it! Thanks for watching!

[@lafstamper]

Love the double dots!

[@ardyth]

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!

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!
