I'm afraid this was a spur-of-the-moment project, several years ago, and I don't really remember exactly how I did it. I do know that I mixed up several stoney shades to work with. I think I shredded some into tiny pieces and pushed them into the surface of others, then smushed and marbled it all together to blend it - the trick is to stop playing with it before all the variation in colour disappears! I hope that helps a little - I'm sorry I can't be more precise... Thank you, Jennifer!
