Instructions

  1. Choose a vintage dictionary, book, journal, or music pages and plan designs. Cut a sheet of Printfoam into desired shapes and incise lines using a ballpoint pen or wooden tool.
  2. Print onto the page using a waterbased block printing ink. Use multiple shapes and colors. Press Printfoam shapes between paper towels to remove excess ink between prints.
  3. Clean tools with soap and water. After the prints are dry, the pages can be attached to mounting board.
