This technique is also from Bernie Berlin's ATC Trading Card Workshop. I had two different types of paper towels in the house with very different textures, so I tore each sheet into quarters and began to play.
I used Lumiere paints, as suggested by Bernie in her book. Here is one set:

Carol, I had that book on my birthday list!! (Still there!!) Did you put these pieces onto cardstock first?
I love all the background techniques and am becoming a Carol S. junkie!!
I tried this but mine didn't turn out quite as nice as yours. Everything you do, turns out so beautifully!
