Create a Script Background

Ooh, I just LOVE the Memory Box Script Block {E453} stamp.  I haven't had time to play with it yet so I took the time today!  First, I thought I would use it to create a background.

To create the background, I stamped the image in Memento tuxedo black ink onto my stamp positioner.  After lining up the image on my Memory Box aqua scalloped notecard, I stamped the image onto the notecard using VersaMark ink.  I repeated this process until the entire card was covered in "script."
 
After I finished creating my background, I noticed the upper right hand corner had some slight overlap.  So my original idea for the card was modified just a bit so that I could cover that area.  I used a piece of Memory Box Rhubarb Tart paper to cover the overlap.  I also wanted to add some ribbon for fun.  I just love brown and aqua!

Next, I added the sentiment, my bow, and some pins to complete my card.  Here is how it turned out:
 
 
Papers:  Memory Box Co. aqua scalloped notecard 84008, Memory Box Co. Rhubarb Tart
Stamps:  Memory Box Co. Script Block E453, Memory Box Co. Thank You B1055
Stamp Ink:  VersaFine vintage sepia
Embellishments: misc. ribbon, Dritz pearl pins

I hope you will use your Memory Box stamps to try a background with VersaMark.  It really is fun.  Have a great Saturday.  See you again soon!

This is so pretty, Patter! I love the touch of the two pins... makes the bow look like a "butterfly". :)
