Seas the Day is such a fun bundle to work with! It's no secret I love to create my own backgrounds and patterns with stamps. I will often study Designer Series Paper patterns so I can create my own with sets that may not have coordinating paper or if that paper has retired.
Seas the Day does not have coordinating paper so today's tutorial is going to walk through ideas to stamp patterns in repeat.

BACKGROUND OPTION #1 (Single)
The first option is using one stamp in one color and stamping in one direction. I think this is the easiest option and there is such impact in repeating a pattern!
BACKGROUND OPTION #2 (Multi)
The second option is Multi Pattern Stamping. This mean you choose multiple stamp images (usually in the same theme) and stamp in multiple colors and in different directions. This is so much fun to experiment with!
BACKGROUND OPTION #3 (Two Stamp & Technique)
When you take out a stamp set and just start stamping in different colors in different patterns you will find fun new designs. When I stamped the seaweed with the yellow fish (Daffodil Delight) I love the look. I wanted to create a whole sheet with that pattern and I also added some shading with a Blending Brush and ink to give an impression of water. It turned out lovely but don't be afraid to experiment. Go with the creative flow!
