********************************************************************

Also I have to show you ,the result of my Erosion bundle.It was to open up today, and I was not dissapointed!!!!
This is a piece of copper, starting to turn gree,-love it



And the fabric here, got the look of almost a batic colored
piece of cloth,because of a red fabric laying on top.
The papers,also took color of water, and rust, and is now very beautifull looking
in a more brown tone, and the lace got the most special,light rose colored
tone, with a little bit of rust in it,too.


This was a special and exiting experiment, and I will certainly take part next year again--
now a little bit more "educated", in how,-and with what.....
