I finally got a chance to go to the dollar store, and score some fun-foam shapes to try the new heat tool/rubber stamp technique that Rachel Payne so graciously shared with us last week. She posted about a tutorial by Tracy Bunkers;
and I have been wanting to try it every since... Thank you Rachel and Traci!
I found these cute little foam puzzles, which were the perfect size after trimming the nubs off. So here I tried them with a crochet doily...
a locket...
and some lace...
Here is a picture of the finished stamps, and the images they make...
I really like how they turned out, I can see a lot of uses in my art. The best part? Well there are two, actually, they are cheap, cheap, cheap to make, and when I messed one up, I just reheated it and the mistake disappeared! Now I am running around the house looking for other interesting things to copy. Give it a try, I think you will like it too. Enjoy...
