Hi friends! Tonight we are going to explore stamping on a plastic paper called YUPO. I was first introduced to this paper 14 years ago and I used it for watercolor but it is really fun to stamp on too!
You can make really fun backgrounds by wetting the paper or get crisp stamped imaged when dry. Watch the video to see some fun techniques!

I had this idea that Yupo paper was just for alcohol inks. I had no idea you could do watercolor on it! Thanks so much for sharing. I am a big fan of the Rubber Stamp Tapestry sets!

Thanks for the link. I just ordered some of the stamps. Woohoo for free shipping. AND, they have 75% off on some of their unmounted stamps. I must be a papercrafter, because I WANT IT ALL!!!

I would love to try this since I also like using alcohol inks and read about it all the time. Unfortunately it’s pretty expensive which is a deterrent for now. Yours came out really lovely!

try an art supplier like Jerry’s artaramam instead of a craft store for a cheaper price, also the lightweight is fine as it does not wrinkle;)
