That will work. I use foil - that works also.

I've done sanitized foil, the foam stopper, and both before. My normal starter process includes 24 hours in the fridge once it's done on the stirplate. That way the yeast settles to the bottom of the flask, so I can decant the spent starter and JUST pitch the yeast slurry into the fermenter.
