Stamping and Scrapbooking combined

I got this in my inbox since I am a subscriber to Scrapbooks etc. They have a weekly newsletter that comees out with lots of neat scrapbooking tips. I thought this week was especially relevant since it pertained to stamping and scrapbooking. I thought I'd share some of the links in the email so everyone can see how versatile and easy it is to incorporate stamps in your scrapbook. This tip is how to create custom backgrounds for your scrapbook pages with stamps. I liked this one because you don't need patterened paper, even though there are tonnes of great ones out there, sometimes you don't have exactly what you need. I also liked it because it gives you ideas how to use any stamp, not just those specifically designed for backgrounds. There are 15 examples of beautiful pages so there really is something for everyone.

This page was my favourite and it could totally be done with any large flower set. It also uses strips of designer paper that coordinates with the pink in the little girls shirt. I think that is what I like so much about this page, they pulled the colours out of the photo to make the page. I must try that next.
