Description
Fun stuff to do with lemon juiceand heat off the burner.
The language is word by word irish
from an english irish dictionary so it means nothing gramatically.
Fun effect though.

so you doused the paper with lemon juice and then held it over the burner of the stove? how close? and... i dont suppose i could try it out since i have an electric stove.. but i've got a cigarette lighter!

Yeah you can use the electric stove, just try to avoid actually touching the element otherwise youll wind up with a flaming piece of yellow paper in your hand.
If you get some of the paper too dry from the heat, bits of it will become brittle and break off.
You might want that effect.

one more question; do you draw the picture first(i'm assuming you do) or do you age the paper first then draw on it? dumb question maybe.. but really i'm worried about doing a good sketch and then.. well... torching it accidently lol

hmm yes i suppose so, the brittle part i mean. depends how aged you want it to look. its hard to get it to look right though. i've seen people try to imitate something that looked like an aged pirates map or something to that effect and it ended up looking like someone just lit it with a cigarette lighter and then stamped it out.
