KAPA foamboard differs from regular foamboard in that the paper covering can be carefully peeled off to use the soft foam layer beneath.

This foam layer can be easily inscribed, carved, sanded, embossed or generally 'broken down'.

In the example above, we made a brick wall by carving the lines with a graphite pencil, then colouring with acrylic paint (FO12005). We then added texture (LG30072) and Spring Tufts (LG40400) to give an aged effect.
