Now it has sort of got me thinking....you could try using food dyes, or fabrics dyes in fact anything, to make lots of different colours....now imagine what you could do with that!! Flowers, fish, geometrics wow!! Think I will head off down to the store to get some more filter papers....tee hee!!!!
