Procedural Writing - Marbled Paper

To help improve our procedural writing skills, we decided to produce some Marbled Paper and then write down all the information someone else would need to produce the same.

Please keep scrolling further for the procedure you will need to follow to produce similar in the classroom or at home. This can be used for the front/back of a card, backing to other art, or simply left as it is to admire.

Here's how ours turned out.
