Aged Paper Project

Working on aging some paper to make some old looking Alice in Wonderland "Drink Me!" and "Eat Me" Tags.  So far, so good.  I soaked  a little higher quality copy paper in tea and then dried them in the oven.  Oops!  I left some in the oven a little longer than others.......Hmmm?  what's that smell?  Oh,..............burning paper......No, I didn't burnt the house down!!!  But I liked the darker effect. 
Tomorrow I might try to add some walnut ink on the edges or maybe speckle them with a toothbrush.  Trial and error, we'll see.  Stay tuned for pics!
