i wonder if you could tell me, do you know the scientific explanation behind this project?

[milkcannyc]

@TyrannosaurusBrieze I'm sorry, but I don't. :)

GORGEOUS!! I have 2 questions. (1) Did you use a special kind of paper? (2) Do you have to treat the paper to keep it from rubbing off after it dries?

Can't wait to try this!!

[milkcannyc]

@juliemichelle4 I used regular paper. After it dries, it sticks fairly well, but you can use a clear sealer if you're worried!

@juliemichelle4 "fix it" with hair spray, but after time even that will wear off

I do bookbinding and this would be very useful. I am going to try it with pastels. It seems relatively easy. Thanks for posting.

There's nothing in the water before adding the chalks. It's just plain regular water. Hope that helps! :)

Why not want around your room? Nigelzanproductions... homemade die papers are amazing for making home made embellies and backgrounds.

This is an amamzing technique...
