Marbled in Green
Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create an anything goes card. I decided to feature February's stamp club technique: shaving cream marbling.
To make marbled cardstock, spray foaming shaving cream onto a flat surface (I used aluminum foil). Level out using a scraper, spatula, or another similarly shaped object. Add drops of ink using reinkers. For this card, I dropped three different colors. Take a toothpick or chopstick and swirl the ink around to create the marble pattern. Press your cardstock into the shaving cream making sure to hit all areas. Remove from shaving cream, but don't wipe off the excess shaving cream just yet. You want the ink to start to dry before wiping off excess. Otherwise, you will smear the ink instead of getting a nice marbled effect. Once it is drier, wipe off the excess shaving cream with a paper towel. Let dry even more before attaching to card.
