This was for TLC80 Foamy Fun where you had to heat fun foam then stamp it, cut it out and use it on a card. I experimented with coloring white foam with ink pads and reinkers as well as pastels. The inks colored but tended to lose their intensity. The pastels blended easily and remained colorful. This is also referred to as faux clay. I think my signature sunflowers look great in this foam!

Wow!!! So the pastels are the thing to use. I experimented with markers, direct to pad, etc as all I had was white. didn't think of the pastels. Your sunflower and leaves are darling. You are so clever.

Very interesting technique. I also love this stamp set. Great job. This is very pretty. I need to use my pastels more often, you've done a beautiful job with them!

I love the way you blended the colours on your sunflower! Makes it look so real; and the fun foam does look a lot like clay! Thanks for sharing your tips with us!
