Recycled Fun Foam Background Tutorial and Whimsy Stamps

Recycled FunFoam Backgrounds Tutorial

By Tammy Louise for Whimsy Stamps

There are times when I'm in love with a multi colored ribbon and simply can't find design paper to match.  Do you love to alter items and make seemingly useless items desirable again?  For pennies, you too can create several different types of backgrounds or imitation design paper for your projects with this easy tutorial.  The webpage is clothpaperscissors.com by Linda Calverley and I'm so excited to share this technique with you I learned in my card class demonstrated by Linda Krench in our monthly card workshop.   "Make your own rolling stamps with fun foam".
