I went to a SU stamp camp this week and learned the coolest technique. You use GLOSSY cardstock. Put a small amount of rubbing alcohol on a cotton ball. Put a drop of two different color reinkers on the cotton ball and swirl it on to your cardstock. It is a nice marbly effect. It also dries very quickly. Try it, it's fun!:notworthy:

Hmmm, I will have to give this a try. But it won't smell as good as the actual shaving cream does :). Thanks for telling us :)

This sounds so similar to doing polished stone....with a twist. Thanks so much for this wonderful tip! I will definitely give this a try, this week!

should I use "dye" reinkers or "pigment" reinkers?

We used the SU reinkers which are dye based ink.
