Every once in a while in life something really cool presents itself to you and you just cannot say no to it.

Our collaboration with ArtFoamies is that kinda opportunity.

What does this mean?

It simply means that some of our beloved Fodder School teachers, like our May FS3 teacher Susanne Randers @mitkrearum, teamed up with Fodder School and ArtFoamies to offer you a selection of their amazing designs as ArtFoamie foam stamps.

Not yet familiar with foam stamps and the ArtFoamies company?

An "ArtFoamie" is a foam stamp used in art and craft projects. These stamps are made of foam material that is soft and flexible, allowing it to be easily pressed onto surfaces like paper or fabric to create patterns or designs. ArtFoamies come in various shapes, sizes, and designs, and they can be used with different types of ink or paint to add decorative elements to art projects such as scrapbooking, card making, or fabric printing. They are popular among artists and crafters for their versatility and ease of use.

Watch as I unbox the entire Susanne Randers + Fodder School collection:

I'm a HUGE fan of Susanne's design aesthetic! I love having that "hand carved stamp" look in my own artwork and I really appreciate that I don't have to do all of the carving and designing myself.

Here is a set of ATC's that Susanne designed with her new Art Foamies stamps:

Read the Art Foamies shipping information before placing an order. You check out that and more on the Art Foamies FAQ page.

I went to town with Susanne's foamies, making lots of collage fodder with them. I stamped them on painted papers, watercolor paper and wet strength tissue paper. Then I fussy cut them and now I have loads of fresh fodder for future projects!

I hope you find this collaboration as joyful as KayPea (the ArtFoamies owner), Susanne and I do!
