I've been in the need for a good craft lately and this project was perfect. The great thing about fabric stamping is the possibilities are endless. You can stamp a shirt, skirt, dress . . . , choose your color, pick any shape. It's a wonderful way to personalize an item of clothing. All you need is fabric paint, fabric of choice, paint brush, craft foam (I used a styrofoam plate), scissors, and glue.
1// cut craft foam in desired shape and glue shape on a larger piece of craft foam 2 // paint stamp with brush 3// stamp fabric, make sure you have cardboard underneath fabric in case it bleeds through (I would recommend practicing on a scrap piece of fabric to know how much paint you need) 4// if you're stamping a shirt let it dry fully before stamping the back
^ ^ I experimented with whiskers or a cat face but felt it look better on its own. ^ ^
Not sure why I was so nervous painting the first stamp but once I started there was no going back. The best part about this project is that Avery really loves it! I just found a shirt for Zara that would be perfect for fabric stamping! But what stamp shape? I was thinking stars and polka dots. Fun and simple!
