Step by Step Video Tutorial: Shaving Cream Background Technique Using FSJ Liquid Colors

The Shaving Cream Background Technique, although messy, creates some very beautiful and unique backgrounds.   Our Fun Stampers Journey Liquid Colors are perfect for adding color to the project.  You can also use our Re-Inkers for this technique.

I created the background first, then cut down to the size I wanted (3 3/4" x 5").   Then I used the embossing folder to create the added dimension for the card.  The embossing folder is called Layered Scallops EF-0018.

NOTE:  With the Fun Stampers Journey Logo facing upwards on the embossing folder, open it and place your background paper inside with the design ALSO facing upwards.

I really like that we have so many ribbons that perfectly match our card stock, inks, etc.  Above I used Watermelon Fusion Card Stock CS-0039 with matching Watermelon Fusion Satin Ribbon AC-0183.  I made the bow separately and attached it with glue dots.   Journey Sequins Bloom Time AC-0114 were attached with our Journey Craft Glue to the bicycle basket.  I was very pleased with how well they went with the overall look of the card and its color scheme.

Here is my video on how to do the Shaving Cream Background Technique Using FSJ Liquid Colors.   If you are reading this via e-mail, here is the direct link:  https://youtu.be/Zy-ME25uk1c

Hope you will try the technique soon.
