Looking for an easy way to print cards and wrapping paper with your children? This roller printing tutorial shows you how to craft festive Christmas tree stamps using a lint roller and how to transform a bottle cap into a stamp for envelopes.
Let’s get started!
How To Make A Roller Stamp
What You Need
- Lint roller
- Craft foam
- Baker’s twine
- Skewer stick
- Scissors
- Ink pad, green
- Card or gift paper
Step 1
Cut the craft foam in 8 pieces approximately 1 x 2.5 inches each. Cut tree shapes out of them. Take the skewer stick and make some tiny holes in the trees. Cut a piece of baker’s twine.
Step 2
Add the foam to the roller: Position the trees so that their stumps point to the handle. Wrap the twine around and through the trees so that it looks like a hillside or a walk.
Step 3
Press the roller onto an ink pad and roll until it is completely covered with green ink.
Step 4
Roll it onto your paper. Let the ink dry.
Add some star stickers if you like.
