Step by Step Guide to Stamping with Bubble Wrap

Stamping needn't be an expensive craft. Many different items can be used to give a stamped impression and bubble wrap gives an interesting result that is great for all over designs. Using unusual and discarded materials also makes this a great 'green' technique. A cassette tape box was used rather than a stamping block in the photographs to demonstrate that it is possible to stamp with just about anything!

Materials

• Pieces of bubble wrap (used bubble wrap works well, but check that no bubbles have been popped or this will leave gaps in the print)
• Stamping block or an object of the required size
• Inks or paint
