Default STamping on Walls question

I want to stamp a border on my wall with Roses in Winter. I bought some acrylic paint, but after doing just 3 roses, I didn't like the look & also didn't really like the color. I just did some practice roses w/ Rose Romance & Rose Red. I love the colors. The "problem" is I only have CLASSIC stamp pads. I know I SHOULD use Craft, but we live in a rent house & this isn't something that has to last forever. What would happen if I used Classic? Would it just fade over time? Would it wipe off? It's in the bathroom so will be exposed to moisture.

Thanks!

Lori

:( Don't think I would try the classic pads... Not sure what would happen, it isn't meant to be used for this idea.
I have done my foyer walls using paint. The walls were textured so I had to go back with a sponge brush to touch up some areas but overall, really like how it turned out. I think there are pics. in my gallery if yuo want to check them out.
You may want to practice with the paint on a piece of cardboard to see if a lighter touch would look better, or maybe less paint.... Maybe more layers...

Default Stampin on a wall

If you are unable to stamp on your walls, you can use acrylic pant on contact paper, and apply that to your walls. It will peel off without pelling your paint on the wall. I have a friend/customer that did it in her bathroom - looked great! Hope this helps!
