How to Create Shaving Cream Art

Creating Unique One of a Kind Art with Shaving Cream is a fun project for the whole family.
Shaving Cream Art can get a little messy so a little prep work may be needed.

Project Designed by Sue Eldred

Materials Needed:

• Foam Shaving Cream (not gel shaving cream)
• Heavyweight Cardstock
• Dye Base Ink Pad Refills or Food Coloring
• Wax Paper
• Craft Sticks
• Scraper Tool
• Disposable Gloves

Featured Storage Container:  Deflecto Stackable Caddy

Directions:

• For easy clean up…Place a piece of wax paper over a large baking sheet.
• Add shaving cream onto wax paper.
• Add several drops of ink onto the shaving cream.

• Use a craft stick* to swirl the ink into the shaving cream.
• Do not over stir or the shaving cream will become muddy.

• Place card-stock directly onto the shaving cream and lightly Smoosh.

• Carefully lift the card-stock from the shaving cream.

• Use the scraper tool to scrape the excess shaving cream from the card-stock.

• Without re-stirring the shaving cream, you can repeat the process several more times.
• The first one will be the most vibrant and will get subtly lighter each time.

Each one will be different and will lighten as they dry.  

You can use this process to create even larger pieces of art.
