Marvy Metallic Markers - background technique
Just scribble random squiggly lines on glossy card then mist with water and turn the card so the
colours run into each other. Then allow to dry. Give a great marbled
effect.
Draw randomly with your pen onto glossy card. Mist with water and tilt the card so that the colors run into each other (you can use as many colors as you want, but 2 is usually a good number to start with). Allow to dry flat once you have achieved a look that you like. This can make great "marbelized" backgrounds!
