This was so fun, Laurel! I made some interesting, well different, designs with this foam for Christmas cards, and my granddaughters (8 and almost 11) spent a morning creating as well. I’d love a video showing how you cut them down, or use them, in your cards. I struggle to get them anywhere near straight on the card stock! Thanks for sharing!

@G.G.8GG Жыл бұрын

Great results! I want to do mostly gel prints but with some stamping and stencils included. I made a lot of my own stencils. Can't afford to buy a bunch of stamps and I really don't want to have to store them either. Since I am mostly looking for texture and pattern, this is perfect! Thank you so much! I did not even know this foam existed.

@mamapillow8365 2 жыл бұрын

I was gifted some of this foam and have been trying lots of things with it, layering the leftover paper from my favorite die cut to get a stamp of the die cut, small almost flat jewelry charms, and opposites of my pattern stamps. When you store them, make sure they're on top because they will get compressed and can be restored with heat, but it can damage impressions you want to keep.

Maybe glue it to some Fibre board first to give it some sturdiness. I'll let you know if it works! Will be less expensive and we'll be able to keep All the backgrounds we like. 👍 I love your channel ❤ thanks for all the great ideas!

Hi beautiful, I feel you may already know about this trick, but just incase, I wanted to let you know that u can just put a hardcover book or something similar that will fit and do the job,under the canvas and when you push in , it will be firm! Just make sure that it fits inside the hollow part and doesn’t go over the wood edges/frame and you can press as hard as your heart desires 💕 Also thank you for this video ! I’m just now learning about any of this , however something pulled at me to watch this specific video first, and I’m so GLAD because I have lots of acrylic paint and only have alcohol inks. Now instead of letting that be a hindrance and having to wait until I can afford everything, I NOW SEE AND KNOW, I can just invest in these blocks and I’m good to start my new journey for now! PRICELESS 💕

Hi, I love how you 'use what you have.' I watched your video on not buying more 'stuff'. I'm like you were, an impulse buyer and I used to subscribe to all the card making YT channels and I would 'need' everything they used. 😒 Then, I unsubscribed to all the newsletters and YT channels . . . but then went off card making (it turns out the real hobby with me was buying 'stuff'.) However, after watching your videos I have gotten some of my enthusiasm back (I have still bought some 'stuff', but only what I needed.) Thank you for giving me the joy back! 👍💖

This is great ! I have decided to buy solid colored T-shirts and decorate the front myself because it is so hard to find quality T-shirts with a print . and the price has gone up ridiculously high . I priced regular stamps at Michael’s and I could not believe the tiny stamps that cost ten twelve twenty dollars . no way. But this sponge stamp is a fabulous idea and opens up a lot more patterns than just flowers or bugs or some thing. Thanks for sharing.
