Shaving Cream Background Technique
- Spray Shaving Cream (white foaming cream) into a container (like a foil pan or I used an older “clamshell” case that Stampin’ Up! used to use to hold their stamps)
- Use the Real Red reinker to squeeze 3 or 4 drops of ink around the shaving cream. Use a plastic knife and swirl the ink around the shaving cream until you get the desired swirl look.
- Press 3-7/8″ x 5-1/8″ piece of Whisper White cardstock into the shaving cream swirl. As you lift off, keep facing down and pull across the edge of your container to pull off most of the shaving cream.
- Flip over and use a paper towel to remove the rest of shaving cream.
- Let dry (maybe a couple minutes)
- Note: each time you add another piece, it will look different. You can re-swirl around and add more drops of ink if you like more color.
Create Santa Cookie Cutter Tag
- Stamp greeting with black ink at bottom of 4-1/8″ x 2″ tag that is cut with the Scallop Tag Topper Punch.
- Place strip of Candy Cane Lane Designer Washi Tape above greeting.
- Stamp Santa image with black ink on a scrap of Whisper White cardstock. Color with Real Red Stampin’ Write Marker. Cut with Cookie Cutter Builder punch. Adhere to tag with Stampin’ Dimensionals
- Thread Candy Cane Lane Baker’s Twine onto tag and tie in a bow. Adhere tag to card with Stampin’ Dimensionals
- Cut off one pom pom and adhere to Santa’s hat with glue dots.

Paint with Wink of Stella Coloring Technique:
- Stamp flower image with Basic Black Archival ink
- Use the Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush to paint stamped image with ink refill.
- Squeeze a couple drops of ink refills into a small container (like an empty button container)
- Center of flower = Daffodil Delight
- Flowers = Rose Red
- Leaves = Old Olive
- Note: Ink refills work the best, but you could press a corner of a piece of a window sheet (plastic sheet) to the ink pad to transfer some ink onto it. Then pick up ink from that. I don’t recommend using the inside lid of the inkpads or you might transfer glitter to your pad after you close it.
- Tip#1: I like to pick up the ink color and pull some it off (onto a piece of scratch paper) as it’s a little too dark for me at first. You can always add more color for depth.
- Tip#2: to change colors, just wipe off on a paper towel until the color is clear again.
- Squeeze a couple drops of ink refills into a small container (like an empty button container)
- Let dry and admire your results!
Tip for Lace Trim: tie in a knot, then loosen up clip and slip on over the knot, then press clip back together for a tighter fit.
