Print the Easter egg template onto white cardstock and cut them out. You can also draw your own shapes on cardstock.
Step 3: Prepare the tray
Add shaving cream to a baking tray.
Spread the shaving cream with a spatula to even it out.
Squeeze lines and dots of paint on top of the shaving cream in a random pattern.
Continue adding paint to the tray in one colour or different colours until it's evenly covered, as shown in the photo below.We used different shades of purple, blue, yellow, and pink, but you can add any colours you like!
Use a stir stick to swirl the paint around. Move up and down across the tray, and also side to side.Then move the stir stick in a curved motion until most of the shaving cream is covered in paint, with only small areas of white showing.
Step 4: Make the marbled Easter eggs
Place a cardstock egg into the paint with the black outline side facing up (if you used our template). Press down the egg to make sure the whole shape gets covered.Let the egg sit in the shaving cream and paint for a few seconds.
Carefully peel the cardstock egg off the shaving cream and place it on a clean tray, shaving cream side up.Grab an edge of the egg with a fingertip and use a squeegee (or plastic ruler) to remove any extra shaving cream and paint. Use firm pressure for best results.Let the eggs dry for about 30 minutes on a paper towel before handling.
Step 5: Make a homemade Easter card (optional)
Cut a piece of ribbon about 4 inches long. Tie a bow and use glue tape to attach it to the center.Then put glue tape on the back of the ribbon and attach it to a marbled Easter egg, with the bow centered.
Attach the ends of the ribbon to the back of the marbled Easter egg with glue tape. Then add more glue tape all over the back of the egg.
Center the marbled Easter egg and press it down on the front of a blank card.We cut white cardstock to 7 x 10 inches and then folded it in half lengthwise, making a 5 x 7 blank card.
