Shaving Cream Marbling!!

Today we are going to do a messy one! 

BUT the results are amazing!

Shaving cream marbling is a fun way to add beautiful swirly designs to paper. 

 Here's what you need:

Shaving Cream

Paint- ( I used finger paint) but acrylic paint, watercolor paint , even food dye

Pen to write your name on paper

Paper (I did half a sheet of 9x12 paper)

Cardboard scrap to scrape shaving cream

Spray some shaving cream about the size of your paper.

 Flatten and smooth it with the cardboard 

Stick with analogous colors (colors next to each other on the color wheel)

Put a few drops of color on the shaving cream.

 Swirl (with your finger, or a fork)

Gently press your paper onto the shaving cream. 

 Pick up your paper, and flip it over, use the cardboard to scrape off the extra shaving cream. (you can add the used shaving cream back to your pile and reuse it over and over again! 

REVEAL!! 

Look at those beautiful swirls!! 

Now you can make something with this! Bookmarks, draw something on top of it. 

Tomorrow I will be posting an egg project that these would be perfect for!
