Shaving Cream Technique for backgrounds

Rachael · July 16, 2020 · Leave a Comment

Hi Stampers!

Hope you enjoyed the cards we made live today!

A Fall Themed color splash

 

Maybe this is a new to you technique, or one you just haven’t done in a while!

lighter turtle
darker turtle, much better!

I agreed with you all….the lighter turtle got lost in the card. I stamped a new version in Memento and colored it with Stampin’ Blends, fussy cut it and overlaid it since the rest of the card was already in place!

Another version with a background stitched circle would’ve been nice too!

If you’re interested in doing a Designer Series Paper(DSP) or Ribbon share from the Holiday/Winter catalog, click here.

 

To create the above cards, you need FOAM Shaving Cream, a plastic knife or chop stick and some ink refills. I would do no more than four colors at a time, but you can make a TON of cards before the ink and foam dry out.

As always, I am here for questions you still may have.

Just ask!
