Squirrel MIX546 The Wonders of Photo Paper

Challenge Title: The Wonders of Photo Paper
Keyword: MIX546
Hostess: Lydia
Date: 7-14-23

People often forget that your substrate can actually be a medium in your projects, and that is CERTAINLY true with photo paper. I used to do this technique with photo paper at my in-person retreats and it was always a wow.

Your challenge today is to use photo paper and at least one other medium - preferably one that reacts with it in a unique way! I chose oxides and also paint.

Here's a video.

Looks like a fun technique. Wish I had the supplies to play along.

Thanks for the challenge, Lydia. It's good to use up some photo paper.

Still can't see videos, so I just did my own thing with WFD using DOX! Have another piece waiting to turn into a card for next week. Took me multiple tries a few years ago to find a photo paper which worked with DOX, so now I have a good supply of it as well as a good supply of stuff that is only any good with alcohol inks and just goes to a jellied mush if water gets anywhere near it.
