Out of curiosity, what weight paper do you use? I've never seen your paper go crazy. Also, how do you get the faded out effects? Ethanol? Isopropanol? or just water?

The faded effects are just water -- does using alcohols work without decreasing the lifespan of the piece?

November 21, 2009 at 6:30 PMnot really sure about the alcohol. I got the book by the shadowscapes lady a while back as a gift and she uses salt and alcohol for certain effects. i think she also plays with saran wrap. it's amusing. I don't really know what salt and isopropanol does to the paper. it could be worth playing with?
