I pulled out one of my old favorite stamp sets by Stampin' Up!, Upsy Daisy and created this card for the girl scouts meeting I did here in Dhahran. I was try to think of something the girls would love to learn and I remember the marble background technique.
It really is created with marbles, so go raid your son's statch.
I use the plastic boxes Stampin' Up! puts their stamp set in and I cut the postcard size white cardstock and stick it in the lid of the plastic box.
Then drop a few of drops of ink, I used real red and old olive into the bottom of the box, now don't use too much just a few.
Close the lid and roll the marbles around in the box then flip the box over and roll the marbles over the cardstock that is stuck in the lid and you create this fun background.
You can roll is a lot or just a few times depending on how dark you want your background to be.
I colored the Upsy Daisy stamp set with real red and old olive markers and stamp it on whisper white cardstock, added a old olive strip and you have a fun card to make and give away.
