Love the spooky color combination. Another interesting effect is, while the paper is still wet from the aqua painter, throw salt on it and let it air dry. the salt crystals soak up the color and create an interesting pattern, almost like an ostrich or lizard pattern. Table salt, kosher salt, sea salt, etc. yield slightly different looks. It's a cool way to add texture.
The paper will kind of curl or warp, but hit it with the heat gun and it will flatten out.
