Shaving Cream + Food Coloring + Little Hands + Watercolor Paper = Awesome Paper!

These are the awesome outcome of shaving cream, food coloring, and watercolor paper. Isaiah and I had a blast making these, even Gracie got in on the action! A word of caution though...food coloring does stain your fingers and probably stains your clothes as well. I love the silky almost crushed suede feel the paper has after it's dried.

So are you inspired? Wanna try yourself? 1) Spray shaving cream all over clean cookie sheet. 2) add drops of desired food coloring. 3) mix the food coloring in with fingers or knife to spread out but not too much. Just make sure shaving cream covers the whole surface. 4) take card and press into shaving cream 5) peel off and lay shaving cream up to dry. 6) once dry, if there is excess dried shaving cream on card. wipe it off with a paper towel.
You can use this techique to make any kind of marbled paper. For ATC's, altered books, greeting cards, art journals, whatever you need pretty paper for.

Go manifest God through creativity! Be blessed!
