SSCB #47- Stamp your own background! #2

You still have time to enter the Serendipity Stamp Challenge Blog this month!

The theme is Stamp your own background.

I used the Stamp of the Month, Japanese Maple, to stamp my background.  I used several Distress Inks and on some of them I colored the leaf tips with a Distress Marker, Fired Brick.  

After stamping I passed the image through my Vagabond with a dotted 
embossing folder to give it some texture.

Inside I die cut the liner after glueing a strip of paper to it and stamping in the corner.
Finished Size is 5 x 5.

Want to go shopping? The 50% off Stamp of the month for September is the Japanese Maple (shown above).

There's some Bo Bunny Pattern Paper in the store that's been marked down.
