What fun was this? Lydia gave us a challenge for the Mix-Ability Challenge that had a twist on the Shaving Cream technique! It took patience. Or in my case, I left home for a day and came back and the shaving cream had oxidized and was ready for me to put my cardstock on it and make a print, or in my case about 20 prints! The little dots are the the bubbles that formed from leaving the inks swirled in the shaving cream for several hours. I die cut the fish and squid and sponged FSJ pastels on them. Then took a pen and did the eyes and gils. The sentiment is stamped on the lightest print I got from the process. Thanks for looking.

Dang. Now I have to buy shaving cream! Seriously though, this card (or series of cards it sounds like) turned out great. Love the colors and the fish trio. Thanks for sharing.

This looks great! This was a very fun technique. I pulled a bunch of prints and left the foam overnight. Came back this morning an pulled bout 5 more from each of my trays! Your little fishes look great. Love the colors in your sea!
