Adding Texture to Layers with Foam Stamps

We Love Layering!

Today's Tidbit features a technique from my new book I'm incorporating a foam stamp from my new Van Gogh Collection to add texture to the paint on my plate before I apply my stencil or mask. You can apply texture to gel printed layers with the soles of your shoes, sink liners, household items, hardware store stuff…. Give it a try! I’d love to hear what worked successfully for you.

Sumie-E Sketch Paper comes in a 9x12 pad and is wonderfully absorbent collage paper that glues down flat and smooth. I am super excited that this product is now stocked by Joggles!
