When I was out with the dog on a recent dog walk I came across a horse chestnut tree clinging onto its leaves and conkers for dear life.
It was very windy, which is why the photo below is a bit blurred. But I haven't taken the photo to show you my photography prowess...
... But rather to show you where it took me.
Some PVA glue, funky foam stuff, a bit of old card ( from dog food packaging ) and some snips..
....and I think we have a new stamp to play with!
Dear reader, you now have to imagine a gap of a few days.
And so to printing!
Out came the acrylic paint - et voila!
This is wonderful! I haven't tried making foam stamps, but I love your results.
ReplyDeleteI love stamps made like this. Have a go!
ReplyDeleteLovely! Might nick this idea for my Christmas cards! ;-)
ReplyDeleteNick away!!!!
DeleteLooking lovely, I do admire your detail, love the negative space you are leaving.
ReplyDeleteCan take ages to snip. Trick is something good on the radio!!
DeleteHow did I miss this post? These are lovely. I have some of that foam and have never known what to do with it. Next weekend's project maybe!
ReplyDeleteDon't worry Avril - it's not you! Somehow blogger got the order the wrong way around. I can't put them back in the right order. Oh well!
ReplyDeleteTry the foam - good fun and easier than Lino cutting!
