How To Make A Roller Stamp
What You Need
- Lint roller
- Craft foam
- Baker’s twine
- Skewer stick
- Scissors

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.

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.
