DIY Marbling

I have seen this really quick and easy marbling DIY on Pinterest and decided to give it a go, it really is quick and easy and gives a really good effect. Great to use for cards and stationary. This is also a great craft to do with kids, as it's simple, quick and safe. 
You will need:

Shaving foam
Food colouring 
Baking tray 
Spatular
Paper
Scissors 
Metal ruler 
1. In a baking tray spray the shaving foam into it. 
2. Add some food colouring and fold the dye in. Don't mix it too much just so that it swirls.
3. Add another colour if you wish and a third. You can use a cocktail stick to swirl the dye in a not mix to much.
4. Lay your paper onto the foam and press down gently so the foam gets all over the paper. Don't leave in the foam too long as it will make the paper soggy. 
5. Lift the paper out and using a metal ruler in one swift motion scrape the foam off and dab off any excess foam with some paper towel.
6. Leave to dry then stand back admire your beautiful marbled paper.
