Wet a brush (I used a foam brush for this part) and paint water all over your paper.<BR /><BR />2. Use a soft bristled brush or a foam brush and wash your ink across the paper.<BR /><BR />3. Sprinkle salt over the paper.<BR /><BR />4. Using your spray bottle, spritz water across the page. The force of the water spreads the ink out and creates the lighter puddles of color.<BR /><BR />5. Let dry, and brush off the salt crystals.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://karenswhimsy.com/play/salt-pattern.htm"><H2>Process:</H2></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/3501A1AC-AE89-47D5-B5EB-6BE0B1169288/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
