Easy rusty tissue with rusting powder

Watch how I create rusty tissue using PaperArtsy rusting powder, malt vinegar and kitchen paper towel. I use an old baking tin to soak the paper in and a paint brush to add the rusting powder. The paper needs to develop overnight and dry naturally. I use the dry rusty tissue to create a set of ATCs which you will see at the beginning and end of the video.

Thankyou. It's lovely to hear your accent as there's so many videos with American accents

[@magswoodcock]

Thank you for watching, it's amazing how many viewers comment on my accent. It's so funny because I don't like listening to my voice on the videos😂

I forgot to say your RUST ATC's are perfect!

Interesting, I’ve never heard of rusting powder? But the effect is really neat! Malt vinegar here in Canada usually reserved for chips xoxo. Thank you for sharing. Have a Happy New Year!

[@magswoodcock]

Thank you, ha ha for chips here too. Happy New Year

Amazing technique...never seen this before! Need to try it!

Thank you, have fun😀

Oh, I think I lost my comment but anyway it’s gorgeous! I particularly like the abstract look of the paper towels and I am sure that I would try to add some blue-green patina color here and there, perhaps infusions if they have that color but I can’t remember right now. All kinds of things to do with it! Thank you! Possibly balsamic vinegar would have the same brown color? But of course it’s quite pricey. Great work!😊😊😊

[@magswoodcock]

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed the video. The Infusions that I like to mix with rusty papers are A Bit Jaded and Green Man . Have fun ! 🧡

Enjoyed watching this process. Thank you for sharing. I was able to play with the powder today on the backs of some postcards I’ll be sending. I’m pretty happy with the results considering it’s my first time! 😊

[@magswoodcock]

Thank you, I saw your results on Facebook, they are fabulous !

[@rikkispin]

I love using real rust but the powder would be easier and more concentrated in areas. Can you tell me where to buy this rusting powder in the states? I loved this video and you so I watched several more and many other in my mind to watch. Thanks 😊

[@magswoodcock]

Thank you. Seth Apter has it in his shop. Seth Apter.com . Hope that helps

[@angelarydall7833]

Love these papers but how long does your paper smell like vinegar?

[@magswoodcock]

Thank you, I find the smell wears off eventually but takes a while . Mostly I incorporate them into my mixed media projects and they end up with a medium such as matt medium on the top. The smell goes when they are coated. I hope that helps

[@BigMoepar]

Cool!
Have you tried this with rice paper?

[@magswoodcock]

Thank you, yes, as long as it isn't too thin, it will work. Have fun

[@janeruthraphael4644]

Can we use apple cider vinegar?

[@magswoodcock]

Yes, any cider will work and apple cider vinegar smells not quite as bad as others
