I also used the same Prima stamp to make a background pattern. I heat embossed it with some white embossing powder. I just wasn't seeing enough white in the card and I didn't want it to be too dark. The pop of white in the background made the darks and lights more balanced for me.
Here's the color combination for the Curtain Call Color Challenge Act 47.
