Happy Fourth of July! This is a card that I made for my Uncle Wayne who has a July birthday. Don't worry...I don't think he reads my blog. I used the same stamping techniques as I did on my layout with Gabriel and the firetruck. I think it turned out quite festive. The photographs, not so much.
To create, this background, start with the largest stamp. Stamp once as a first generation stamping and then stamp again for a lighter, second generation stamping. Repeat with the second color. Then, move on to the next largest stamp.
Continue random stamping until the space if filled with images. Make a note to stamp some of the images off the page onto scrap paper so that it looks more like a piece of patterned paper.
Next, trim the paper down to the desired size. If dividing, divide on the trimmer so that the paper seems to continue on.
