Handcrafted.....Foam Stamps


How FUN are FOAM STAMPS !




I have been saving up plastic food containers

all summer long...

they work great as the base for

creating these handcrafted foam stamps...






to create the stamps...






The size of the plastic container determines

the size of the stamp you create...






I double up the foam sheets 

so the stamp is thicker,

easier to apply paint 

when you are stamping with them...






The foam sheets are backed with paper.

I draw the design on the paper side,

then cut out the shape with regular scissors...

it cuts like butter!





After cutting the shape, I pull off the backing 

paper to expose the adhesive side,

then press it down onto the plastic...

ta-da you have a handcrafted foam stamp!




I use these stamps for jello printing

and also direct printing on fabric.

Brushes from Nature...



Creating Handcrafted Brushes




from natural objects...













We gathered various botanicals...













My botanicals were mostly weeds that I picked 

along the road side

as we moved the cattle this morning...






The Art Sisters are at the Quilt Palace

getting crazy with handcrafting brushes!






Ferns






Cedar






Old Man's Beard Lichen






Hydrangea






Feather






It is quite joyful creating marks

with objects from nature...






Circles are always a favorite!






Here are the brushes I created...






The fern brush created tree shapes







The feather created broad strokes






The stems created tiny strokes






The foxgloves created bold circles






The pine needles also made great circles






I thoroughly enjoyed testing out all of the

nature brushes on fabric.




All of our brushes drying in a pitcher...

makes a beautiful display!
