Instructions

  • Fill your tray with about 1/2 - 1 inch of water.
  • Drop different colors of alcohol ink on the water.
  • Dip one end of your paper into the water all the way and then pick up.
  • Marbling With Shaving Cream
  • Add some shaving cream over a plastic garbage bag.
  • Spread it out large enough for your paper.
  • Drop spots of your favorite alcohol inks all over.
  • Use a toothpick to run through the ink making swirls and marbled shapes.
  • Set your paper on top and gently press down.
  • Make sure the entire surface comes in contact with the shaving cream.
  • Gently lift up from the corner.
  • Set the paper down and use a flat tool, like a ruler, to scrape all the shaving cream off to the side.
  • Set aside and allow to dry.
