TECHNIQUE TIME TUESDAY CHALLENGE: SHAVING CREAM BACKGROUND

Wow! It’s that time again…..it is TECHNIQUE TIME TUESDAY and this month I am the hostess! What fun! That means I have a prize for the winner of our challenge this month! Here is what you are playing for:

For the challenge, I chose the Shaving Cream technique because I love making backgrounds and this one just smells so good!  What is that you say? Well, it is just the most fun because you get to mix shaving cream with dye ink!!!! Here, let me show you my card then I’ll give you the link to Mynnette’s tutorial!

  (A2; Stamps:My Favorite Things (Vertical Sentiments); Flower: Silhouette die cut; Border punch: Martha Stewart; Die: Spellbinders) 

I received a new camera for Christmas and I am still trying to get the settings like I want them. This photo is a little yellow compared to the green in the card, but you get the idea. The pretty swirly background is that shaving cream with green and a little pink swirled in. The first time I tried this technique (I think last  year), I was amazed at what was left on the card when I wiped all of the shaving cream off. I’m sure you will want to see how this works, so please check out Mynnette’s tutorial here and then get all messy with us and show us your creation!  

Thanks for stopping by! Don’t forget to show us your project for a chance to win my prize package!
