Feature FRIDAY VIDEO - Shaving Cream Technique

OSAT BLOG HOP - Let It Snow!

Blog Hop

 

Welcome to the OSAT November Blog Hop! Our theme for the hop is Let it Snow. 

You may have just arrived here from the talented Kim Smith's blog or maybe you're starting with my blog - whichever it may be - please make sure you click on the NEXT button at the bottom to continue on the journey to see what the rest of the 17 talented bloggers have created!

I decided to go with one of my favorite snowflake stamp sets and a shaving cream technique for my LET IT SNOW themed card. Put some shaving cream in a shallow pan, add a few dots of re-inker (I used Bermuda Bay), swirl it around and push your Whisper White layer of card stock into the mixture - wipe off the excess shaving cream and WAAAA LAAAA! It's just like magic!

The Softly Falling embossing folder adds this beautiful texture to my card front...and of course the shaving cream technique looks good enough to eat - right???

Here's a close up of my swirly deliciousness! This technique is really easy! You can stop back by on Friday where I'll feature a video showing you just how to do it!

Funny story...as a demonstrator...I find myself at the store looking for candy and other items that I can use in my stamping. It's always fun to dream up cute projects using fun items. I found those Lindor truffles in BERMUDA BAY! How very cool is that?

Gorgeous set Kelly! I have wanted to try the shaving cream technique for a while now and you have certainly inspired me! That marbled look was perfect with the snowflakes! Your little treat box is adorable and how cool that the treats came in Bermuda Bay! :)
