3 Wonderful DOUBLE Background Ideas + LIVE Video!

Do you remember if you VOTED for the Background video? Well this was Runner Up so I just had to give it a try……. So, I made 3!

Lostinpaper - Double Background Fun - LIVE (card video) - Copy

For all three backgrounds I started by blending either monochromatic, analagous or rainbow colours. This gave me a great base to start with. Then it was easy to Double things up by stamping another background pattern overtop.

My first design is monochromatic and uses Sweet Dreams Ink set to blend and to stamp the Painted Stripes.

I kept it very simple and added a few scoops of ice cream from the Cake Set.

My second card has a ‘muted’ rainbow palette. And to create my ‘double’ layer I stamped a multi coloured Positive Print Turnabout over top.

These backgrounds are perfect for a bold sentiment like this All the Feels.

And finally my fave from today. This analagous ombre style background was perfect for this Striped Circle Stamp.

And for this card I decorated it with the Good Day set and thank you Jennifer (I did change up the orange to suit the base colours).

I hope you were inspired to create some ‘Double Backgrounds’, or even just practice blending and mixing up some fabulous colour combos!

20 thoughts on “3 Wonderful DOUBLE Background Ideas + LIVE Video!

  1. Tried so hard to stay awake for the Live, but dosed off twice during Midsummer Murders and hubby told me I should get to bed, so I did. The cards look amazing so I’m off to watch your video now, have to say Therese, card number three is my favourite too❤️

  2. They are all lovely Therese, its so nice to see how you finished them off. If I had to choose a favourite, then it would be the orange one, that stamp is so cute.

  3. Well done, Therese! Very cool results – but I’m still wishing I were that chick in the convertible driving 11 hours [from somewhere in Australia] to get to YOU!
    =]

  4. Love the “tequila sunrise” concept and colors! That background stamp was on my “maybe” list, but now is in my “buy” cart!
    A Christmas live featuring a “mass production” technique would be awesome! But really, I just enjoy “watching” your thought process….and changing your mind.

  5. Love the finished cards! So glad I could watch live, it really is more fun interacting in real time. Can you believe I found time to stamp and colour yesterday? it has been a while distracting with other priorities – um a few requests – nothing like a deadline to make you move 😉

    1. Yes i totally agree, that’s why I enjoy the DT ‘work’ so much, it gives me motivation and I love the brands I work with. Good luck with your deadlines and THANK YOU so much for joining me, I truly had a blast!

  6. Love these backgrounds. Great little characters too. Yes Please do a Christmas live. I usually only get to watch the replay but would still love it. I so enjoy watching you.
