I’ve had this Christmas Bulb background stamp for quite a while now, and I’ll be honest, I haven’t used it because I just couldn’t get into the idea of coloring all of those bulbs! So, I cheated and made a colorful background with alcohol inks and used some vellum paper to let the colors shine through. Easy, peasy. 😁

Thanks for watching!
Remember, if mailing a card with layers and embellishments in the United States, be sure and buy “non-machinable” postage so your cards don’t get smooshed in the USPS postal machines.
