Many years ago when I worked at a scrapbook store, a new product came out that was another way to use your inks to create a different background depending on what you used it with. It was a stamping block that when heated, could be pressed onto a surface which left an impression in the block which could then be inked up and stamped onto paper or cardstock. Simon Hurley has re-released this product so a new group of crafters have been exposed to this magic find. You can press the heated foam into so many things to create a pattern to be stamped and in this class, I used only stencils to create my impressions. Embossing folders also work really well as does lace, a pile of rubber bands, mesh from a produce bag, a small pocket section on a child's pair of jeans, virtually anything that will give texture will work.
