I really am having a great deal of fun with shaving foam - almost cracked a rib laughing when I told a friend I bumped into that I was giving a class on shaving foam and she sort of paused and said "what kinda of class ARE you giving that involves shaving foam!?" ....and that's when I realized for the first time how it sounds when you say it that way - - and I was "NO! not like what you're thinking! Or whatever you're thinking!! ha ha!" {she's a nurse - so } - -well, anyways we both had a good laugh. But here is some of my first results with it - I've made some lovely tags! See the background is the paper that has been marble-ized with the shaving foam and inks? Then I used some Stampin' Up Big Shot Dies {one has a flower which was cut in paper and tissue}, and some cut out pieces from various stamps to make 'chic' tags! It's pleasant to sit and craft with bits and bobs - like decorating a safety pin with beads {pull it apart...

F ATHERS DAY CARD Paper quilting is a favourite trick for card-making.  A Top Note die-cut was covered with  scrap papers, then layered  on to Kiwi Kiss cardstock which was cut leaving a small border. The Top Note shape has a point and would be troublesome to stand on its own, and so I would make an 'easel'.  So I created a large 'A ' with a supporting leg behind it, and added a shelf. {double-thickness plus glued a thin wood stir stick for added support}  DAD stamped assemblage secured by a clip in place and topped with a tin star!  Hope you like it!
