The new Wildflower Meadow background stamp can be viewed on pg 83 of the NEW Stampin' Up! catalog!  I prefer my background stamps in Wood mount, but you have your choice of wood or clear.  If you select Clear Mount, you'll need the "F" clear block, #118483, on pg 196 in the NEW Stampin' Up! catalog.

Did you see that I colored the Very Vintage Button?

I dipped it in the Versamark pad, then into Tangerine Tango embossing powder and heated it!  The technique is just like embossing Vintage Brads here.
