Hi Everyone! It’s Susan and I’m sharing a post for the Random Acts of Cardness prompt of Texture. I have a LOT of pics so I made them smaller to fit more in – hope they’re not too small to see.
I was playing with the Simon Hurley Stampin Foam. This was my first time and I am HOOKED!! If you haven’t tried these I highly recommend them. All you do is heat the foam for a couple of minutes with your heat tool then press in to whatever you have that is textured. Next you ink up the foam like you would a stamp then stamp with it. I wiped it clean with a wet wipe then heated it up again with my heat tool to remove the impression and moved on to the next thing with texture.

Here’s a pic of the foam with the impression of the wall and inked up then me stamping it.
Below are all the panels I made using the foam. The top three are made from the impression I got from the wall in my craft room
The middle row: left is from my sweater, middle is a wicker basket and right is my Tombow markers
The bottom row is all the edge of the baskets that I store my stamps in.
And these are the cards I made from the panels. I do have a couple still to play with but I did make a lot.
All the products I used are listed below.
Other ways I added texture was to to use stencils, tear edges of card stock and also distress the edges of some of the card stock.
