Shaving Cream Backgrounds

	Cheap Shaving Cream (the no moisturiser variety)	Food Colouring (3 colours)
	Shallow baking dish	Spatula
	Cream or white matte card	Water or paper towel
	Newspaper or Paper towel	Permanent black ink

	Place shaving cream in shallow baking dish.
	Drop approximately 9 drops of food colouring onto the shaving cream (use 2 or 3 colours only - 3 drops of each colour) swirl gently with a spatula.
	Lower card into shaving cream and pat down until card has connected fully with cream - this removed any air bubbles that may have formed.
	Remove card and quickly wash shaving cream off under the tap - or wipe off using clean dry paper towel (wiping may cause some colour bleeding).
	Leave flat to dry on newspaper or paper towel – iron when dry to flatten further – or press under heavy books.
	Stamp with a permanent dye ink (Stayzon black) and mount onto card.
