I have owned an aerosol of shaving foam for some years with the intention of making some backgrounds and I've finally done it! What great fun and my craft room smelt beautiful! I used two inks in the foam - London Blue Dylusions and Tumble Glass Distress Reinker.
Another first was to use the nostalgic Crafty Individuals stamp which I bought when it was first released as it was a reminder of my own childhood. This could well have been my brother and me - there's eight years in age difference. I stamped the image on a piece of card and coloured with a combination of Copic markers, Distress Inks and pencils.

Shaving foam backgrounds are fun aren't they? Yours turned out beautifully for this, it looks great with the stamped image!
So many firsts for you! Well done it is a beautiful picture and thanks for joining the Craftbarn Song Challenge. Also, thanks for the Rod Stewart reference - I didn't know that. I came late to Rod Stewart with his American Songbooks!

This is great, it has a real 'Banksy' feel and the shaving foam marbled background sets it all off perfectly.
This is gorgeous Maggie. Beautiful background for the duo.
Flo :)
