TIME FOR THE MARBLEIZED SHAVING CREAM PAPER ACTIVITIES!
Begin by adding the shaving cream to a large shallow pan. Spread the shaving cream evenly in the pan. Fill small cups or mason jars with the liquid watercolors (we used magenta, turquoise and yellow). Add one pipette per jar.
Add drops of the liquid watercolors all over the shaving cream. So pretty!
Use one of the pipettes to swirl the the shaving cream in vertical and horizontal motions creating a marbleized effect. Don’t over do it!
Take a piece of the thick paper and place it on the shaving cream. Gently pat it down and lift it up.
Next we took a plastic credit card and scraped the shaving cream away. Get ready for the most gorgeous results!
