Bister -- the Amazing Fun Begins!

Here's what I did next.  This was amazing because I didn't know what it would do and I thought it was quite exciting.

Sprinkle some Bister (blue) on paper (I used watercolour):
 Then spray with a water mister:
Keep spraying and soon the colours will all start to run:

I also noticed that when you spray from farther away (so the paper gets a light mist) the result is different than when you spray close up (so the paper gets a full squirt).  The top part received the mist and the bottom part got the full blast of water.  Look how it reacts!:






 On this one I just sprinkled Bister and then gave the paper a full blast of water.  Here is the result right away:

I LOVED this! 

Here is a video you can watch to see it in action.  The video is in Dutch and Dutch is one of the hundreds of languages I don't speak, so after the first word (Hello) I didn't understand anything.  But he does have the pertinent information written in English on the video and it shows the Bister in action :

Here are some many fun results I got:

Yellow:
 Blue:
 Black:
 Red:
Mohogany:
Green:

I just loved this!  All the different colours swirling together!  I'm also going to experiment with adding a few different colours together and seeing what happens.  Stay tuned.

So now to make cards out of this...

On this piece I just stamped on the paper:


This piece I added as an accent to give the card a bit of interest:
