Last week I held my monthly technique classes, and this month’s technique was the Shaving Cream technique. This lovely background technique has been around for years, but I realised I had never done it as a class, so this time we did. Everyone loved the results, and it was a lot of fun. Here’s one of our projects..
I had put aside one of the plates of inked shaving cream aside to use later, and actually forgotten all about it. That’s when my hubby came up with a suggestion which I tried…. and it worked! Here I am practicing with lots of samples to try to get it right….
More details are of course on the video tutorial below. If you are after a very cool but imprecise technique this one is a lot of fun. The only downside really is that its not a quick technique…. so you’ll need to be a little bit patient!

MIne did this as well, between one class and another before I had a chance to clean up. Mine did not make sparkles so I wonder if that is a brand thing "Gillette" I used Barbasol. Either way it was beautiful.
Hi Robin…. thats useful info. It could well be a brand thing. Glad yours worked out too!
