Well, as promised…here is the video tutorial for the shaving cream technique! While it looks really messy it is actually a very easy clean up. And the final result is simply stunning, wouldn’t you agree? Be sure to check out the entire video as there are a few sample card designs at the end! 🙂
So here are a few little tips and some supplies you will need to get started:
1) Use Foam Shaving Cream (not the gel)
2) Grab a paper plate and your bone folder
3) Choose 2 different color re-inkers (I used blushing bride and crumb cake).
4) Cut a a few pieces of whisper white cardstock to any size (I cut mine to 5 1/4 x 4 inches)
5) Make sure you have LOTS and LOTS of paper towels on hand!
6) Have fun!
Hi Marthea, Thank you for for visiting my site and for your comments! Yes, you can make more than 2 pieces with the same ink and foam; however, the more pieces you make, the less distinct the “swirls” are. The pattern becomes lighter and lighter which eventually leads to a blurry looking background.
Absolutely gorgeous. Love the color selection too. Can you make more than 2 pieces with the same ink & foam?
