Each Monday a small group of 8 of us SCSers do a challenge that was assigned a month before. This week we were to use the Shaving cream technique. I used SU's Rose Red and Choc. Chip reinkers, on Papertrey white cs, to get the effect of the scallop and my photo corner. The pink is Bazzill and the brown is SU's Choc. Chip. I ink distressed the edges with Ranger Walnut Distress Ink, paper pierced with Tim's Holtz's retractable craft pick, added pink Adornit jewel droplets that I got from Eclectic Paperie, and colored my Elzybell image with copics. Isn't this image sweet? I'm a huge Elzybell's fan!! Huge I tell ya!! Love them.
I made the dots with Souffle Pens and I put coffee ice stickles on the back of the button and glued it on with hot glue. (The button was a gift from Cammie - I used another button....thanks for the inspiration Cam) I also used a corner rounder on the bottom corner.
edit: Some have claimed they can't see the shaving cream....I realize it's not as obvious as usual. I had it as the complete bg, but it was too busy, so I cut the middle scallop out of it, and did the corner with it. It's there. I'm sorry you can't see it as well as you should. It's very obvious irl!! *sigh*
