WOW -- what a sunny day you have put together for these 2 little girls. No kidding, I'd always seen this set with so much water -- how refreshing to get a brighter view just by changing the color. If you have time, please explain how you did the process as only time I've done shaving creme I have swirlies.

Thanks!
I hate to waste the shaving cream so after I've done the swirly kind I use a putty knife that I "borrowed" ;) from my husbands tools to make these backgrounds. You just take the swirly shaving cream and run the flat edge of the putty knife back and forth across it. It kind of smears the swirls. I do that until I get the right look, add more reinker if it needs it, and then "dip" the paper in as usual. My only tip is when you scrape off the extra shaving cream, go in the same direction as the streaks. This is really important if you add metallic reinker.
