Marbeling Ideas

This week for Demo, Bekah was the Demonstrator! She showed us some new ideas for doing Marbeling..

She used a variety of different mediums.. but the BEST results came from the classic "Shaving Cream Marbling"

This technique is VERY easy. Just squirt out some shaving cream onto a tray.. such as a cookie sheet... drop inks or sprays onto the surface, use a skewer to manipulate the inks, and do a mono-print with white card stock. After you do the "lift," take a piece of chipboard and scrape away the shaving cream.. what you are left with is a BEAUTIFUL marbled design with very little effort

Bekah used some of these papers to cut out this new Lighthouse design from Impression Obsession.. gosh I LOVE what she was able to create!!

Just look at all the wonderful variations of papers she was able to do die-cutting with!!

Check out below what she did with the Kyakers and the Sunshine!!

This just goes to show that you can really make a stunning card with some of the papers you create..

Bekah decided to play some more... She thickened her tub of Distilled Water by adding Xanthan Gum into the mix.. you NEED TO USE a food processor to fully mix the water and Xanthan Gum together.. but it makes for a thicker water that some inks will float on..

Colorburst was one of those products!!

Check out here what Bekah created using the Colorburst as the Marbling Medium.. you get much softer designs..

This was a fun idea.. Bekah put Distilled Water in a tub and floated Alcohol Inks on top.. then she did a dip with YUPO paper.. what a FUN EFFECT!!

I just LOVE this effect!! What an unusual idea.. this pattern is just stunning...

Here Bekah cut up some of the papers and used them as a background for an "Impossible Card" ... Stay tuned because she'll be doing a demonstration on THAT idea at a later date!!
