Make Stamps Using Cricut

 

DIY foam stamps are the perfect beginner Cricut craft! Cutting foam with Cricut was one of the first Cricut made craft projects I did back in 2015 (I even wrote a blog post about it here!). Did you know that Cricut can cut foam? I’ll show you how easy cutting foam with Cricut Explore is below! Learn How To Make Stamps Using Cricut and supplies from the Dollar Store below!

 

I show you how to make a stamp and how to make foam stamps using a Cricut machine. If you don’t have a Cricut machine, you can still make your own stamps using craft foam and wooden blocks. Making stamps and cutting foam with Cricut is a great beginner Cricut project if you are new to Cricut.

 

–>>Watch the How-To video below on how to make stamps using Cricut!

Craft foam stamps are a fun activity for kids and adults! I used foam sheets from the Dollar Tree (instead of Cricut foam sheets) and wooden blocks found at Hobby Lobby. These craft foam stamps cost less than $1 to make your own stamps using supplies from dollar stores!

 

–>>Check out this HUGE list with 30 Cricut Supplies From The Dollar Tree!

 

 

Making these Cricut Stamps was easy with my Cricut Explore machine but I’m including instructions in case you don’t have a Cricut machine.

 

✅ This is the Cricut Machine that I own and use it for everyday materials. I also have this machine but I only use it to cut fabric ????

 

 

I highly suggest using a Cricut Explore or Silhouette cutting machine to make this project. Just upload the SVG or PNG in the program you use (I use Cricut Design Space), size, cut, and apply!

 

 

If you don’t have a cutting machine, you can use Craft Foam and stencils to cut your own images or use Pre-Cut Foam Letters, Numbers, and Shapes, found at craft stores!

 

 

My favorite online resource to find SVG files to make Cricut craft projects is DesignBundles.net!

 

–>>Click here to see the latest bundle with the best SVG files online!

 

These Craft Foam Stamps were so simple to make and were an easy #5minutecraft that kids can help make them!

 

DIY Foam Stamps are a fun Cricut beginner project. If you never cut craft foam with your Cricut, you will love making some stamps!

How To Make Stamps Using Cricut

 

Supplies:

  3.  Set your machine to cut Foam.

FYI – Making Stamps with my Cricut machine was one of the FIRST Cricut projects I created!

I received my first Cricut machine in 2013 and made my daughter some alphabet CORK stamps using my Cricut machine.

New to Cricut?

Here are some Cricut Basics!

 

–>>If you want a Circut Machine but aren’t sure which machine is for you, be sure to read this post, How to Choose Which Cricut Machine is Right for you.

What Cricut Accessories Do I Need?

 

Cricut Essentials make putting the pieces together a joy. From tweezers that handle delicate parts to Cricut EasyPress for foolproof iron-on, every Essential makes a great project even greater, every step of the way.

These are the Cricut Tools & Accessories I recommend for the serious crafter:

 

Cricut Easy Press

 

Cricut Supplies Beginners

 

 

I highly recommend purchasing the Cricut Easy Press if you plan to do any iron-on or heat transfer projects. The Cricut Easy Press will make your Cricut DIY’s so much easier!

 

The Cricut Easy Press comes in 3 different sizes, however, I own the 9 x 9 and it’s the perfect size for most projects.

 

–>>Get the Cricut Easy Press here!

 

Cricut Easy Press Mat

If you purchase the Cricut Easy Press, don’t forget to get the coordinating Easy Press Mat, which will protect your surfaces and projects from burning. Alternatively, you can use a folded towel, however, the mat is sleek and easier to store in the craft room 😉

Cricut Bright Pad

The lightweight, low-profile Cricut BrightPad makes crafting easier while reducing eye strain. It illuminates fine lines for tracing, cut lines for weeding, and more.

Cricut Cutting Mats

I suggest having a variety of cutting mats that are customized to match the weight of commonly used crafting materials. With three different mats specifically designed to work with different weights of materials, you can ensure success in all your projects.

You will thank me later for telling you to just get the Cricut Tool Set instead of buying each tool individually! The tools included in the Cricut toolset are all helpful when using your Cricut machine.

 

–>>Get the Essential Tool Set Here!

My favorite non-Cricut brand materials

 

You can find other brand vinyl, iron-on, contact paper, and more outside of Cricut.com. A few of my favorites are:

  • Oracal 651 Permanent Vinyl (find it here or at your local craft store)
  • Siser HTV
  • Dollar Tree clear contact paper (or shelf liner)
  • Various fat-quarter fabrics at Walmart
  • Felt sheets at local craft stores

 

 

Learning how to use your Cricut is really easy and fun once you get the hang of it. If you don’t have a Cricut Access Membership, I highly recommend it. I’ve had a Cricut Access Membership for years and it’s definitely worth the cost for all the benefits!

✅ This is the Cricut Machine that I own and use it for everyday materials. I also have this machine but I only use it to cut fabric ????

How To Choose a Cricut Machine

I bought my first Cricut machine in 2013… it was called the Cricut mini and was one of the first Cricut machines that didn’t have a keyboard. It was a great machine but as soon as Cricut released the Cricut Explore machine in 2014, I quickly bought it. A year later Cricut released the Cricut Explore Air and I bought that too. Then in 2017, Cricut released the Cricut Maker Machine and of course I bought it too. So you can say I’m pretty experienced with Cricut machines and have in-depth knowledge about using Cricut and various Cricut projects.

32 Easy Cricut Projects for Beginners

I love learning about new Cricut projects and Cricut Explore Air 2 Projects, but some Cricut crafts seem more advanced than others. I put together this list with Easy Cricut Projects for Beginners to help others find Cricut tutorials for beginners and free Cricut projects. Most of the projects featured in this post can be made using a Cricut Explore Air and Cricut Explore Air 2, but some of these beginner projects require a Cricut Maker Machine (Cricut beginner projects using fabric).

How To Save Money on Cricut Supplies

I love finding a good deal on Cricut vinyl craft supplies and I tend to stock up on Cricut craft supplies during sales (Cricut.com has the best Black Friday sale!) but Cricut supplies can be expensive! One question I’m frequently asked is where can I buy Cricut supplies? Well, not only will I share where you can buy Cricut supplies, but where to find discount Cricut supplies! My favorite store to find Cricut supplies cheap is the Dollar Store.
