Some ideas,
but certainly not all:
First, fill a pan with about 1 inch of shaving cream (not the
gel type!) and level off like icing a cake. Next,
drop in 2-3 colors of re-inkers in random spots.
See figure A
Using a toothpick or the back end of a paint brush, gently swirl
through the re-inkers to distribute the color in a nice swirl
pattern. See figure B
Don't over mix or you will get muddy colors!
Take a quarter sheet of matte cardstock and put it on top of
the cream. Using your finger tips, gently push the paper
onto the cream, making sure that the complete surface of your
cardstock touches the cream. Feel free to give it a twist!
Then pick up the cardstock by one side and lift.
Using a spatula or credit card, scrape off the cream. You
will have a beautiful pattern left on the cardstock. Scrape
in long sweeping motions so you do not leave streaks in your
design. After removing the majority of shaving cream off
of your cardstock, make sure to dab any excess shaving cream
off with a paper towel and allow to dry.
You can do multiple sheets of cardstock with one pan of shaving
cream. Have fun and be creative!! |
