I want to stamp more on my layouts, but need some ideas for how to incorporate them onto the page. I've got everything from generic background-type stamps to specific themed ones. What techniques do you use/like? Do you have a Pinterest board of ideas?

Pam C had a challenge a few years ago to use your stamps to create a background. I just did a quick look and couldn't find it. Maybe she remembers? There were some great ideas there.

I've used stamps
to create a border along the edge of a page
to create a page embellishment
to create a frame around a photo
to create a page background
to create a journaling space on a page
to stramp the page title

When Club Scrap had the pro stampers bowl
there was always the challenge to use stamps
on a page, too bad their gallery is no longer
available, but there may be some posted on Pinterest
I know I tried to get my pages on before they disappeared

here are some examples where I've stamped on layouts...



this one was stenciled... but similar idea

Thanks ladies, there are definitely some ideas here I'd forgotten about. I never remember that I have a couple of roller stamps, because of course they don't fit in with the UM stamp storage. I don't usually index my stamps as it's easy to flip through the box, but I will add an image of the roller stamps; maybe they'll even show up on a layout one day.

Oh yeah.... I've got some roller stamps that I should definitely get out of the box and make inky....

Elizabeth - I think I have used stamps for all of those too. Stamps can be so versatile. I remember one Club Scrap challenge was to use a stamp 3 times. That was fun.
