shaving cream tech.

Help. I am trying to do a black and white card swap and i am using white paper. I want to do the black reinker and the shaving cream to make a cool background. I tried it and the ink looks purple against the actual black paper that the picture is going on. Any idea?? I also tried just stamping the butterfuly in black ink on the paper then used white craft to stamp the outline (bold butterfly set) and again it looks purple up against the black border that i have.


does anybody else have this problem???


thanks!

I would have guessed that would be a problem. I just pictured when I clean the black ink off the stamp, it looks purple on the paper towel with even a little moisture, so I would expect the re-inker in the wet shaving cream would do the same thing.

Hopefully someone else has a work around for it 'cause it really sounds like a neat idea.

Maybe try black staz on ink refill. It might work because it is more permanent than the classic black ink.

I just went ahead and made a background with itty bitty backgrounds... its faster anyway and less messay... But i will try the Stazon next time thank you...
