I would say the best step by step video where you speak in just the right speed and explain even small steps so beautifully...Will surely try with my kids. Thanks !
You don't have to clean it out and use new shaving cream every time! You could have pulled at least two or three more papers off that first batch, maybe adding a little more fresh paint. If the paint gets mixed together so it's muddy or brown looking, that's when it's time to change the shaving cream. But I keep the old s.c. , stir it up good and use it as a muted background for fresh paint. So it has a beige or grayish background instead of always white. It makes it look more antique or aged. Or you can use light colored papers too, instead of just white paper.
I did this at school for art class and mine turned out so good, and I made it into a little notebook. Thank you for the video cause I want to do this again sometime so I'm going to save for whenever I go to do it sometime soon.
Thank You Ela, so Simple & EZ (Meant Respectfully :) & an Endless "Sky's the Limit" Amount Of Future Diversities of Future Design Differences.... & Note if your Paint sits For a Bit 2 long the Pigment Drops To the Bottom of The Jug & Needs 2B Stirred Quite Extensively at Times. I had paints Sitting a Year or 2 & Found This out... So Nice of Designs, Ela !! :)
Instead of acrylic craft paint, you can use a few drops of food coloring - it creates very soft colors of marbling on your paper. And I think clean up is easier.
i imagine you can do it on canvas... maybe try one of the small canvas pieces first... I did not seal the paper, but if you're doing it as artwork, you could always spray the clear acrylic over it.
yes I have used muslin and old white sheet and it came out great but does not work well on T shirt fabric... if you are careful and take your time use a pair of white boxer shorts and surprise the man in your life, though he may not want to wear them to the gym or golf club he might get so odd lucks
@@artsymitsy if you scrape it too soon, you'll blend the foam and colour causing the smearing mess. The foam is just there as a pillow for the colour to sit on, you must leave the paper a lil while to absorb the colours properly!!! And the colour MUST be sitting ON TOP of the foam. When you do your swirls with a cocktail stick or end of a paintbrush, make sure not to blend the foam and colour together, it's when they blend that you get splodges, gently do the patterns to ensure the colour sits on top of the foam.

Good explanation!
I have a love hate relationship with paint. Videos like this move me more to the love side of the relationship. Thank you for sharing your technique.

Looks cool
I love this idea
Love it
Can this be done on a canvas? Nice work due you seal the paper? Thanks Terri

Can you use poster paint instead of acrylics, please? Beautiful work, thanks for sharing. God bless you 😊🌻
I have not tried other paints... only the acrylics.
I use food coloring instead of paint.I've pulled as many as 45 sheets from one batch. You don't have to clean it after every round.
Awesome.... thanks for sharing that tip
Can you do this process on ceramic tile
I haven't tried it... maybe sanding the tile first may help....
How do you know which is the correct side of the paper to put in the cream ?
I don't think there is a right and wrong side
and i have to do it...
after coloring, is it printable?
Yes... I was able to use my gel pens on them so I would assume you can print on them.
Which colour you have used pls
I used a variety of colors. They're the small tubes of acrylic paint from Michael's and the metallic paint is "Martha Stewart" brand
Have u done this on canvas ?
I have not.... should work tho. Let me know if you do.
Has anyone tried this on cloth?
Vikkie Alkas it can work on calico, something that’s natural and absorbent, it won’t work on anything synthetic

Can we do this on a canvas
not sure... I have not tried. Let me know if you do.
I tried this tonight and it didn't work for me. Not sure what I did wrong but when I squeegeed it, it turned into a smeared mess. :(
Follow "sea lemon" (
Same here !! This does not work!

@@tamielizabethallaway2413 thanks for the explanation , but I had kept it for 3+ minutes, and even after that the colors did spread 🙃
