Paper Casting With Stamps by Wendy Kerr

Reprinted from the web

Items Used:
Pigment Inkpad
Cheap Toilet Paper
Soft Paintbrush
Water
Watercolor Paint Cakes
Stamp by Yellow Rose Art Stamps

#1: Lay your stamp design side up on your work surface.
Tap lightly with a pigment inkpad (pigment inks will bleed a little adding to your final look.)

#2: Load your paintbrush with water and  tap onto the toilet paper.
Do not BRUSH on as it will tear your paper.

#3 Add more paper and press down. Make sure you get the paper into the grooves of the stamps. Be gentle! Add up to 10 sheets (for this project I added 7 sheets) When the paper gets too dry, add a little more water. As you get to 5/6/7 sheets don't add any more water. Keep adding sheets until the top sheets are barely damp to the touch.

#4 Using watercolors, add color to the areas of the paper.
Bold color is ok, as it will be muted on the front side. Let dry then gently peel from your stamp.


Center: (1) Dry flowers (2) Run a small piece of acetate (transparencies) through your Xyron machine to get it sticky. Feel backing off. (3) Place dried flowers onto the sticky side of your acetate. (4) Crumble a piece of white tissue paper and place onto sticky side of your acetate, on top of dried flowers. Press down. (5) Attach to frame with glue, then attach that piece to green cardstock.
