Marbled Prayers for CAS Mix Up

We have a new challenge at CAS Mix Up

This is a technique I've been wanting to try for ages.

Using Stamping, Marbling, Heat Embossing, Die Cutting, Fussy Cutting

I sprayed some shaving cream in a foam tray, smoothed it and dropped

2 colors of re-inkers into it.

Swirled with a wooden stick and laid some paper on top.

(I later found that a toothpick works better get more delictate swirls of color.)

After pressing it down on the swirls, I lifted the paper and

scraped the shaving cream off with a piece of heavy acetate 

that started out as backing for clear stamps.

It sure made the house smell good!

Here's a closer look at the shine of that embossed shell.

There's several ways you can do marbling and we have some videos over at

CAS Mix Up

I can't wait to see what you come up with.

EDITED TO ADD THAT AAA CARDS TO  USE A NEW TO ME TECHNIQUE

Marbling was a new to me technique.
