Marabu On Hahnemühle Bamboo Results #hahnemuhle #marabueasymarble

 A couple days ago I posted a video showing how

to make these marbled cards.

The product I used was Marabu Easy Marble.

You can buy it here. 

Not expensive, a bottle at $2.54 will last

quite awhile at a couple drops here and a

drop or two there. 

For paper, I used Hahenemühle's

Bamboo Mixed Media Papers.

The ones I chose are roughly 3" x 4". 

The perfect size. 

 You can see from the video this is a super simple

way to marble some papers.

And in a hurry, too. 

The colors are beautiful. 

The colors are fairly accurate here.

One of the things Marabu tells you in the

advertising is that you can not make mud

with these colors.

Hahahahahaha!

That bottom card up above there,

I was trying to show how you couldn't 

possibly make mud. And what do I do?

I make mud. 

Yep.

But, I'm keeping it - contrary to what I said

in the video. I am sure I can do something

sometime with it. Hahahahaha!

I have three favorites from the ones seen above.

I bet those of you who know me best -

can tell which three.

 I did get a pleasant surprise I wasn't expecting.

Because of the way I completely submerged the

Bamboo paper in the marble bath -

the backs had some interesting looks, too!

And I really like that!

I can use both sides!

I don't know how I will use these just yet.

Now that they are totally dry,

some of them feel smooth to the touch and

would take pen work very well.

Some still have strands of goop gunked up on them.

(That's southern talk for 'they are a mess.')

But I will find a use for them because I don't

waste any of this awesome Bamboo paper for

anyone!

If you are new to my blog,

anywhere you see pink means it is a link,

just click on it. 

The link should open in a brand new window,

so you can still find your way back here.

So just remember -

pink=link.
