I just tried marbling...

I just tried (well actually this past Thursday) marbling for the first time and I was goofing off. I used the last bit of FC I had and mixed in some purple in half of it and silver pearl in the other half. Both were Createx acrylic paint some that I use for airbrushing. It worked great! It didn't turn out tacky. I'm going to try and get some pics off my camera...if I can find the cable.

Found the cable but I'm having problems uploading the pic. It keeps giving me an error about creating a thumbnail.

Don't forget you have to choose a catagory when uploading pix.

Sounds like ya had fun Ash & that's what it is all about.
