Showed patriotism using red, white and blue for the bg.
Used the shaving cream technique. Spread the shaving cream onto parchment paper and spread it smooth on top. Added dots of Oxide Inks around the top of the shaving cream. With a thin end of a paint brush swirled the colors in different directions.
For a final step added the bright yellow oxide ink and took the fine end and just pulled gently out the edges like a star.
Added shimmery white stars on foam tape as a final touch! TFL!!

So that is what shaving cream is supposed to look like! You are inspiring me to hit the dollar store and get a can of that fluffy stuff to spread and smear. What fun it must have been!

This is gorgeous and gives me an idea! I wonder how it would work to cut star masks and put on the paper before doing the shaving cream? Then peel off the star and viola! I might try that next time I get out the shaving cream.
