Marble technique


I  wanted to make some kind of background for a card so that I could just use the big saying from the Happiest of Birthdays stamp set, so I thought I'd go with the Marble technique, but I haven't done that in a long time, so I just searched a quick video by Stampin'Up! and gave it a try! 


You will need shaving cream (Not shaving gel), some re-inkers, spatula & something to hold your shaving cream in.  I'm using a retired wood block case.


To watch the video, click HERE

The colors I started out with were Bermuda Bay, Coastal Cabana & Misty Moonlight.


Then for the 2nd panel, I added BumbleBee and came up looking like this.  I really liked this one!


And then I decided to add Magenta Madness.  


Hope you give this 'Marble' technique a try with different colors & see what you come up with! 

Thanks for stopping by!

 As many of you know, the new mini catalogue went live on January 4th, plus the new Sale-a-Bration brochure is in force!!! I started playing with the new products I received so far! The first 2 cards were made using the Dainty Flowers DSP you get for FREE with a $60 CAD order during Sale-a-Bration (Jan & Feb 2023)  This paper coordinates with the Dainty Delight Bundle , it is $74.50 CAD, so by ordering this bundle, you qualify for the pack of DSP for free! I love how this paper looks textured, similar to watercolor paper! Here's a close-up... I used the Medium Daisy punch & a small circle punch for the center. And for these 2 cards, I used the Favored Flowers DSP you also get for Free with a $60 purchase during SAB!   There is a coordinating bundle called Fragrant Flowers that is $67.50, so if you get that, it would qualify you for this paper, or you can order something else.  I simply fussy-cut the flowers from this beautiful pack of paper for both of my cards!      An

Peaceful Deer card

  So my husband & his brother have their birthdays just before Christmas, only 4 days apart, so my Brother-in-law's girlfriend, Nancy, asked me if she could over some day to make a handmade Birthday card for him, so she came over tonight to play.  She was at last Saturday's class, the first one I had since March 2020, and it was her first time making cards, she used to Scrapbook years ago, so I think we've got a new Stamper! Right Nancy??? LOL He's a hunter too, so we had to include a deer! lol  So I remembered a card I made with the Peaceful Deer bundle (I had cased from Susie Wood).  I added the picture below, so you can compare, and if you click on that card, it will take you to Susie's blog in case you'd like to see how she made that one!   I originally was gonna do one for Rocky too (my husband), but then figured it would be weird if they opened up their cards together at the party and find the exact same card! lol  So I'll make his later, so I deci
