This is a second card for both the TLC and CAS challenge with a bit of a twist.
Years ago I saw a demonstration on marbling using shaving cream.
You can use water based inks or paints to do this technique.
I doped SU Real Red and Pacific Point reinker ink randomly over a thin layer of shaving cream, the ink will just go on in splodges and sit there, the magic happens when you take a toothpick or something similar and drag it through the ink in which ever pattern you like.
Next you take some gloss card and lay it on the shaving cream.
When you lift it off there will be a lot of shaving cream I rinse this off under a running cold water tap very briefly. You need to get all the shaving cream off but you don't want to saturate the card.
You can dry the card with a hair dryer or your heat tool. Just another version of marbling.
The card itself was very simple with some stamping in Night of Navy and some pearls and sequins for some bling. It is a one sheet card as was the previous card.
Cheers
Marg

Another awesome background, Marg!! I started to use the shaving cream technique as I have more luck with it. You created two outstanding cards for the challenge, Marg! Great pieces of work!!
