Make It Monday # 39 - Multi-Stamp Background

I love making my own backgrounds using stamps so I was excited to see Nichole's Make It Monday Challenge #39.  I wanted to do something different than flowers and leaves so I pulled out the set Fruitful.  I also decided to go with an unexpected color combo - Scarlet Jewel, Orange Zest, Summer Sunrise and Spring Moss. 


I created the senitment by combining a sentiment from Birthday Basics (it reads "Hope this day is as special as you are") and then adding the "Sweet and Juicy" using Simple Alphabet!  I like how the start of the sentiment is all neat and tidy but then the second part is lopsided and fun!!  LOL!!

Off to see what everyone else used for their background papers.

Thanks for dropping by.
