Background stamps are some of my favorites as they are SO versastile, as the creations below will demonstrate.  And it’s that time of year again where we need to make space, so this week we are featuring ALL of our Background Stamps in stock by JustRite and putting them ON SALE.  It’s a great time to stock up and I hope the creations below might inspire you to get crafty with your backgrounds.  AND we will be back, hopefully daily this week, with more “background” inspiration for you.

ALL background stamps by JustRite are on sale – a total of 35 selections – at 15% OFF or more (holiday stamps are 25% off).

Sale begins NOW and runs through the weekend, until 2/11/13.

Sale prices apply to IN STOCK items only.

We have a lot to show you, so let’s get going!  These projects were pulled from the design team galleries as some of my favorites!

Michelle used Shabby Music Background here.  Love how she used such a small portion of the stamp to create that subtle background.

Find this card on Michelle’s blog here.

Michelle also used:

Washi Tape, Spellbinders Rose Creations, Rhinestones

Darsie created this pretty card using Autumn Damask Background.

Love how she cut the top of her stamped portion with Spellbinders Classic Edges Two.

Find this card on Darsie’s blog here.

Darsie also used:

JustRite Grand Sentiments, May Arts 1.5″ Grosgrain Stripe Ribbon (Celery)

Whereas Darsie used Autumn Damask Backgound above to create the majority of her card front, Barb chose to stamp it and then use a die to cut out a shape with the Autumn Damask print on it.  Sure adds a lot to the die cut shape!  I LOVE this color combo.

Find the full project on Barb’s Blog here.

Barb also used:

JustRite’s Grand Sentiments,  Kaisercraft’s These Days Paper Pad, May Arts 1.25″ Silk (Moss), 1/2″ Seam Binding, Prima Roses

Deb created this beautifully vintage card using Vintage Alphabet Soup Background Stamp from the Amazing Paper Grace Collection by JustRite.

Find this card on Deb’s bog here.

Deb also used:

Vintage Filigree Fancies (Amazing Paper Grace Colleciton) by JustRite,  May Arts 1.25″ Silk (Black), Bow Easy, Tim Holtz Distress Ink (Tea Dye), VersaFine Onyx Black Ink

In direct contrast to Deb’s rather dark, vintage and distressed card above, I wanted to show you this light, very white card by Linda using the same background stamp that Deb used.  Both lovely cards — just so very different.  So MUCH can be done using your background stamps to achieve different looks!  So fun —

Linda used the Vintage Alphabet Soup Background Stamp from the Amazing Paper Grace Collection by JustRite.

Find this card on Linda’s blog here.

Linda also used:

JustRite’s Large Fancy Sentiments, Spellbinders:  Matting Basics A, Matting Basics B, Floral Ovals, Circle Nesties, Vintage Lace Accents

Also, May Arts 1/2″ Wrinkled Ribbon (White), Prima Roses, Pearls, Tuxedo Black Ink

I used the Ticking Stripe Background here.  I LOVE that by using any background stamp I can create a coordinate to any designer paper at all, as I’ve done here.

Find this card on my blog here.

Other items used:

With Sympathy Clear Set by JustRite, Charlotte’s Dream Paper Pad by Kaisercraft, May Arts 1.25″ Silk Ribbon (Champagne), Prima Roses, Prima Stick Pins

And we’ll finish off today with a bright and fun Valentine from Barb using Antique Damask Background.  Just love how fun-loving this is!  Not at all what I would first think of from a stamp called “Antique Damask”!  Again, just shows how very versatile these background stamps are.

Find this project on Barb’s blog here.

Barb also used.

JustRite’s Antique Valentine Tags One clear set, Prima Washi Tape (Zephyr),  Prima Perles Flowers (Zephyr),  Spellbinders Classic Hearts, Prima Pom Pom Trim (Orange), 1/2″ Seam Binding Ribbon, Scor Tape

And this will do it for today’s projects.
