Thank you Jim, I hope they like it... the tissue paper will creat lines in the texture they can see so when they apply color the rocks shouldn't be too hard to follow, thanks again,

Hi Rees, this is just store bought tissue wrapping paper you get at christmas or for general gift giving.
I tried some of the colored wrap but its made with a plastic of saome sort and didnt want to stick, the regular colored pastel paper tisue works tho, have a goi at it its fun, and thanks for the kudos,

chunky looking and fun, I'll betHi Pam so nice to see you, yes this is fun, I have tried this on slabs of wood also, but the white opf the WC paper makes foir better texture and tonal values, thanks for looking I appreciate it,
