I've used a piece of Kraft cardstock to back this page, after cutting a piece from the middle of it to draw a circle and then randomly stitch around and around it for my circle around my photos. I've also sanded the background of my photos (not everyone's "cup of tea" but I love the effect, especially if the photo background is a bit stark). I love Prima packaging and have used the cardboard backing of the flower package to put behind my speech bubble and also used the little stripe-y bits as embellies near the cat and under the birdie.
