Shaving Cream Marbling Technique to create Hero Arts Bulb Ornaments!

Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

Let’s get started by creating some beautiful marble backgrounds using some shaving cream…. yes shaving cream!!! If you have never done this before you are going to get a kick out of this fun and easy process. I’ll show you exactly what to do in today’s video. It’s a bit messy…. but lots of fun!

To do the marbling we will be using the Hero Arts Liquid Watercolor and the Glimmer Metallic Inks. These bottles have a dropper applicator so it will make this product very easy to use.

Now we can die cut some ornaments from this marble paper using the Hero Arts Infinity Dies – Bulb Ornaments in a few different sizes. This will give our ornaments a very unique look! We can use these same dies to die cut the topper in some pretty metallic silver cardstock.

Next, we will add a sentiment to each of the ornaments using the Peace, Love, and Joy from the Hero Arts Ornament Peek-a-boo Infinity Parts set. We will emboss these sentiments using some “Liquid Platinum” embossing powder.

Next, we can create the background for the card using the Hero Arts Bold Prints 6″x6″ – Starry Night Brushstroke stamp. We will ink it using a clear embossing ink and then we will emboss it using the Hero Arts – White Satin Pearl embossing powder. Then we will add some pretty ink around the edges using the Hero Hues Ink Cube in Summer Sky. Let’s also spatter this background with some white paint for a snowy effect!

Let’s also ink the edges of the ornaments using the Hero Hues Ink Cube in Cotton Candy! We can add some pretty blue twine to each ornament and pop up the ornaments with some foam adhesive squares.

Next, we will die cut a pretty branch to hang our ornaments using the Tim Holtz “Holiday Greens” die set. Let’s die cut several of these branches and then glue them together for added dimension! Now we can add some Hero Paste in White Pearl for a pearlized snowy look!

Let’s quickly assemble the card and add a few of the Hero Arts Hero Hues Clear Enamel Dots onto the background, tie a pretty bow and add a few gems to the branch for a beautiful sparkle!

DIY Snow Globe Ornament using the Art Impressions WC Snow Globe Set!

Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

Today we will be playing with the brand-new Ai WC Snow Globe Set (5791) which includes all of the stamps needed to create a beautiful snow globe. There is a snowman and tree, a church, deer, sentiment and the base of the snow globe. It also includes the circle die needed to create the opening for your card or projects as well as some wonderful little coordinating dies. These include a few pretty snowflakes, leaves, and a few stars!

This set is designed for your card and journal projects, but I thought it would be fun to engineer a little snow globe ornament using the new set! I will give you all of the instructions for creating this fun ornament. There are probably several ways to create one of these ornaments, but I will show you how I created mine.

There are also Ai Snow Globe Shaker Domes (5808) available for purchase. Please note that these are sold separately.

Let’s first stamp and color the church and base for the snow globe using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Sugared Almond Pink, Haze Blue, Sea Green, Lt Gray, Cool Gray 3.

To set the scene for our globe we will be inking the circle (which is from the same set) using the Tim Holtz Distress Oxide ink in Speckled Egg and Peacock Feathers. Let’s also add the look of snow by spattering the background using the Dr. Ph. Martin’s Bleed Proof White Ink and we will also spatter the background using the Wink of Stella Clear Glitter Pen. Just adding a bit of water to each of these will allow us to easily spatter with these products!

Again, in the video I will give you detailed instructions for how I cut, layered, and assembled this snow globe. But before we assemble everything be sure to add your sentiment to the back of the ornament using the same stamp set. We will also die cut a few of the snowflakes included in the set to place around the sentiment!

I was trying to come up with a way to hang this ornament and I decided to use the little tab die from the Ai Mini Journal Template Set (5718). This will give us a little hole for our ribbon and also looks really pretty with that scallop edge!

We can quickly ink up around the edges of the ornament with the Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Ink in Picked Raspberry using a blending brush.

Let’s assemble everything and add some pretty pink and white baker’s twine and for a bit of sparkle let’s add some gems from Pinkfresh Studio… in pink of course!!

I did add a few iridescent stars to the sky however I didn’t fill my snow globe with any glitter or sequins…. but you certainly could. To be honest with you I kind of wish that I had…. maybe next time!!!
