Whenever I go to my friend Lindas house she always gives me things that I might like to alter. On a recent visit she gave me a load of brown wrapping paper. This makes a lovely surface for stamping on and looks very vintage with brown inks and curled edges..its one of my fav stamping surfaces rather than stark white paper. Here are a few christmas cards in green and brown tones..all of these beautiful stamps are from Scrollswork.
Carin, my blog friend is having a blog giveaway..be sure to check out all the goodies here...

Wow, beautiful cards! I love using brown pare for painting/ creating backgrounds, but rarely stamp directly onto it. Maybe I should :)
Wonderful, love brown paper, instant antique look no matter what you do. These are marvelous and you are so ahead with your holiday creating...xox Corrine
It's much softer than stamping on white, isn't it? Lovely. x
Lorraine, these are very impressive!!!
Stunning cards!
I alway like seeing what you're up to Lorraine. I think I'll do some brown paper stamping too.

Just lovely! I recently made some flowers out of brown paper lunch bags, inked them in multiple colors and used them to make cards. I was very happy with how they turned out! Very inspiring! Thank you for sharing.
your cards are gorgeous, love the vintage feel
Lovely work Lorraine
I love brown paper-- and yellowed too, for stamping and collage. These are beautiful cards!
They turned out really well :)
Fantastic! I love the cobwebby feel you achieved with the white paint/ink through sequin waste.
