Hardwood (Woodgrain) Background Card Samples

Usually with every catalog, there's a product that I seem to just gloss over and think that I probably wouldn't use it or it's just not "my style".  That product this year in the Occasions Catalog is the new Hardwood background stamp.  And, guess what?  I love it!!

When you need to add just a little something on the background (heaven forbid we have "naked" card stock!), this stamp is a great one!

Here's another example of the Hardwood Background stamp with the adorable little owls (using the Owl Punch).  Isn't that a cute combination?
