Recommended Surfaces

• Pre-washed fabric – natural fibres like cotton, smooth linen, or dye-ready silk are best.
• (Do not use fabric softener when preparing fabrics)
• For best results, iron fabric before stamping. Pillows, aprons, canvases (primed or unprimed), paper and cardstock. Smooth walls, floors and furniture.
• Unglazed clay, glazed pottery, cork, chalkboards, wood, and more.

Recommended Paints and Pigments

• Use any acrylic paints (but no oil-based paints).
• Use water-based or water-cleanup mediums, pigments, and ink pads. Okay with non-alcohol, non-solvent spray mists.

Special Effects

• Load more than one colour on the StampBuddy.
• Use a sponge, brush, or roller to add colour to ArtFoamies Stamps.
• Paint fabric with a brush and use a clean ArtFoamies Stamp to lift colour.
• (The lift technique works best if a lighter colour or extender is painted first).
• Create shadow effects by stamping several times without more ink or paint.

Tips and Tricks

• Put a layer of padding (towel, felt, phone book pages) under fabric before stamping.
• Make sure walls and furniture are clean and dry before stamping.
• Take care not to rock the ArtFoamies Stamp so images remain crisp.
• Don’t forget to heat set fabric paint per manufacturer’s instructions.
• Spread out rolls or large sheets of paper to make gift wrap.
• Stamp on top of patterned papers to create unique effects.

Care and Storage

• Rinse ArtFoamies Stamps with running water immediately after use.
• Gently and thoroughly clean the grooves in the stamps.
• Do not let paints or inks dry on the stamps.
• Dish soap can be used if necessary, but do NOT use chemical cleaners.
• Stamps may stain, but the stains won’t affect your art work
• Rinse the StampBuddy before it dries; do not leave the StampBuddy in water.
