Foam Stamps

In the fall Cloth Paper Sissors magazine there is an article about fake silk screening.  It really has to do with making stamps from craft foam.  I have been interested in doing this for a couple of years, and have made my signature "swallow" stamp from foam.  I had tried making some from some new craft foam I found recently at the YSM, but they did not stamp very well.  After reading the article, I re-vamped them and think they are now a bit more usable.  Here are my practice stampings.  I think eventually some parts of this practice will end up in a collage or two, lol.  These are fun and very easy to make!
