Oriental Card

Today's card is my last one using the shaving cream technique. I think the stamp is from Stampendous, background paper Dovecraft and white organzer ribbon is from here.


I really had lots of fun making these cards with the shaving foam.

Enjoy!

Oriental Poppy Cards

Today's cards have been made using the shaving cream technique, which I love doing. It is so easy to do and the effects are stunning!
I have used Bella's Baubles on the first card, they just seem to finish the card off, I think!




Shaving Cream Technique

Supplies:

• Shaving Cream (cheap unscented)
• A cooking tray or wax sheet
  
• 3 reinkers
• paint scraper
• Toothpick
• Card Stock

1. Spread a layer of unscented shaving cream on a flat surface (cooking tray or wax paper works great)
2. Take 3 reinkers of compatible colors and drop dots randomly over the shaving cream (don't over do it or your work will end up muddy)
3. Swirl colors with toothpick.
   
4. Take a piece of white card stock and press into the shaving cream from the center out (to get the best of the colour combination)
5. Remove the card stock and scrape off the extra shaving cream with an inexpensive paint scraper.
   
6. You have a great background to use for cards of all types. You can repeat until it starts to appear muddy or lacks enough color.
7. These backgrounds are perfect to stamp and emboss onto.
   

Enjoy the cards!
