Shaving Foam Marbling

Last weekend I had a great time teaching at a Creative Card Workshop with two friends.  We each taught 5 different cards.

The favourite from my section was shaving foam marbling so I thought I'd share it with you.

Take this:

and you can create this:

How cool is that?

Take your shaving foam and spray onto a paper plate.

Spray your choice of inks onto the foam, I used a Crafty Notions Mica spray and a memories mist.

Using a barbecue skewer or similar create a pattern in the foam.

Take your card and press into the foam.

Wipe off excess foam and you have your marbled background.

You can make several prints by swirling the foam again, between each print.

Each time you take a print the colours become paler.

Have fun.

Happy creating Lynne x

This was my favourite technique, it really is effective, have bought shaving foam and going to try with cosmic glimmer mists.

Debbie you could make your own glimmer sprays using reinkers and pefect pearls or mica powders in a mini-mister.

Hmmm, wondering how quickly Craig will notice his shaving foam has dissapeared if I have a play at this while he is out tomorrow :P

Looks fab, definitely going to have a play!
