Technique: Fingernail Polish Backgrounds

My favorite technique for decorating paper and possibly the most economical in this recession-weary world: Visit the Dollar store and buy a bottle of red fingernail polish; float/drip/sprinkle it on a pan filled with about 1" of water; lay white card stock on top, remove, let dry. You have created a one of a kind background paper that you can embellish, stamp, etc. Works great for backdrops for Valentine sentiments.
