New marbled papers
I did some marbling last week. Each time that I pull out my marbling gear, I try a wide range of patterns and techniques, but also I will focus on a couple techniques or patterns in an attempt to improve them by doing them over and over. As you can see from the first few pictures here, I did a bunch of free-form curls on stone patterns - with and without antique spots. (Looks simple, but in fact, I find the antique spots very difficult to apply well.) Actually, these are all basically stone patterns - the black one is the Italian Vein variation, and the last one is stones with a spanish wave.

I have never seen the rippling effect before. I think I've fallen in love!
I love them all, of course.
Beautiful! I love the swirls!
Thank you Shannon, Paige, and Laura!!
Gorgeous every one!
thanks tammykingdon and acornmoon :-)
These are so gorgeous! spanish wave is tough, I've been trying it out with mixed success...
Wow!!! Thanks for the beautiful papers that you contributed to the paper swap! I am a proud owner of a few :)
Thanks Ruth! I was just recently looking at your books with the marbled paper, great zebra patterns!
And thanks Radha, so glad you got some of my marbled papers!
I love that first blue curl! Makes me think of Avatar. :)
These are really nice. I just bought a couple of Italian papers from Dick Blick but I like these better and just coming back from your etsy shop I see they are a reasonable price. I've saved your shop so when I save my $ I can get some!
I put the Italian one in a book I just made but if I get some of yours I'll put them here.
