This card was inspired by StampinSusie who showed us rolling marbles at the Lincoln shoebox and the flags/thanks were an idea from a card from my secret sister whoever she is. Great ladies they are.

I was there! I was there! You place a couple marbles in an empty stamp case. Then add a couple drops of reinker and roll the marbles through it. Next, attach your cardstock to the inside of the lid with double side tape or whatever you like. Then, turn your stamp case upside down so the marbles roll around on the cardstock and make "marbley" lines. We did two different colors in two different cases. Fun fun fun.

Randi is correct on how you do it.... we had lots of fun and as far as I know, nobody spilled the marbles. Nice to see you Randi and I am still working on the next shoebox to be held in Mahomet.
