Homemade mounting foam



Something that came in the mail was packed in this wonderful foam. You can cut strips and apply double-sided tape on them, stick them to the card stock you want to levitate, then apply more double stick tape to the other side to secure to your card base. In the top photo is a roll of foam I saved from a package. You can see a strip I cut from it and a roll of double-sided ATG tape.

Here is a blue panel raised from its white card base with homemade mounting foam:



In the wedding card below, the outer blue frame was raised using homemade mounting foam so the central aperture would be more dramatic. Whatever I save on supplies, I spend on Sue Wilson dies.

  2. A brilliant idea. I recycle quite a few things but this is not something I thought of.
