Marbled paper in shades on green and peach

Have you ever marbled paper with acrylic paints. There are probably dozens of ways to do it but ...
Here are some suggestions I've gathered from the internet for "marbling" paper, marbelizing paper …
"combing" paper, etc, using liquid starch and acrylic paints http://www.make-stuff.com/recycling/marb… 3 parts paint to 1 part water http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Lake/… Carefully drop a piece of paper onto the marbleized paint and leave for 18 seconds. Then VERY carefully lift out. Place face down in a vat of warm water for 20 seconds or so to remove starch. Allow to dryPour liquid starch (liquid starch like for starching shirts) about an inch thick into some throwaway containers. Add a touch of water to several colors of craft acrylic paintsPour a couple of colors across the starch. Swirl a toothpick around it to make patterns, then lay the paper on the surface to pick up paint. (the paper should lay flat) Don’t immerse it. Pull it off and let it dry. (You can keep adding colors to the starch until it’s finally too muddy or the starch runs low. Then start over with a new container). After the paper is dry, you can also dab a bit of metallic paint on a paper towel and randomly daub it across the surface
