Shaving cream and card making you say?
Finished card project |
Why, yes I say! I love trying new things...especially new techniques and mediums. Being new to paper crafting, there are soooo many things I still have yet to learn about this crafty outlet of mine. In one of my Facebook groups (yes, I'm in many Facebook groups--card making, jewelry, Pampered Chef, Thirty-One...you name it), the shaving cream technique was posed as a challenge.
At first, I looked at it and was like...doesn't really float my boat, plus I don't have any shaving cream in my house (who says that, right)...who doesn't have shaving cream at home you ask...well, that would be me. Anyway, I rose up and accepted the challenge.
Materials:
- Shaving cream (must be the foam type--NOT gel)
- Reinkers (I used Stamin' Up! Blushing Bride, Pumpkin Pie and Tangerine Tango)
I used two different techniques: "smooshing" (absolutely positive this is not a "real" term", but it's what I hear everyone else refer to) and the other with stencils.
I haven't made the cards yet, but here are 2 additional patterned pieces I made...definitely more to come using this technique.
