Alphabet stamps for young children learning the letters would be so fun!

Such a great idea, it reminds me of making stamps out of potatoes :)

Enjoying this one again Karen, while I fold the laundry. Sure makes me enjoy that chore more! I hope you’re healing well from your surgery, and not in too much pain. Since many of us have very limited space, I’m wondering if we could just glue the fun foam pieces to a circle of window cling plastic to hold them together? I recently learned on Cat Hand’s channel that this plastic clings to acrylic stamping blocks. It might even work on the Misti or other stamping platforms that so many card makers use! Your video inspired me so much today that I added a new page for foam stamps to my Evernote crafting inventory system, in preparation for my days off… Take care and stay warm.

I really really like this. Thanks for sharing. This is totally doable and affordable

Genius idea! I can not chew gum, but this has me thinking about using other types of lids; yes, jar lids would require saving whole jars, or gluing a handle to the lid, which should not be difficult. If a store you shop at sells lids by themselves, then all one would need is one size jar that fits (much better for storage). Also, as you pointed out, homemade stamps may lack the precision of commercially produced stamps, they do have an important quality- they are your own designs; there may be others that are similar, but the DIY stamps are uniquely your own. Thank you again for this genius and very creative idea!😊

Your designs are so creative! Thanks for the tip of tracing the foundation shape for your “canvas” when designing and then for arranging the marks. Too bad the foam isn’t thicker. Would it have worked to adhere two sheets together before you began cutting shapes?

I love how you used something that would have been recycled. I never chew gum, so I’ve never noticed the containers—but it’s hard to tell behind the original package label. What perfect handles they make!

[MaryAnnePerl]

Such a creative way to make stamps. Love all of your designs.

To save even more space, keep one or two bases to use with all the stamp tops you created. I can think of a few ways to use the extra bases.

[jojones]

Thanks! I don't have gum/candy bottles, but think I will try with presc bottles. They will be smaller, but hopefully workable. Jo

[kriscrowe]

What a great idea! I hav saved tons of these!

[brendacollinsdeeks]

I can’t believe how quickly you were able to do these. I would have thought it would take a lot longer. I love how the stamps turned out. Great idea.

[SvtlanaIgnateva]

Потрясающая идея, а главное и доступная, и очень эффектная для работы ! Очень здорово !!! Спасибо за идею, очень пригодится .

[barbborja]

Love this. I wonder if doubling up the foam before cutting would give cleaner stamping results? You know, for those of us with OCD, who may be bothered by the lid printing. lol

[marikareimer]

Wow!! What a lovely creative mind you have!! I really like this idea 😊

[lindagraham]

[cindymccabe]

Karen, you have the best ideas. Can’t wait to try this. Thank you so much!

[ShoshiPlatypus]

I love this! I've never seen containers like this in the UK but I'm sure I could find something similar. I love stuff for art, especially if it doesn't cost anything lol!

[juliedrennan]

Awesome, this is definitely a project I'll try. Thank you 😊

[dianadavis]
