The paper is brown wrapping paper, thoroughly crumpled, with a wax-candle rubbing of the bottom of a glass bowl, followed by pouring/brushing ink over, and then finished off with a coat of acrylic wax for shine and protection. Years ago I made a lot of decorative paper in this way, adding various stamped and stencilled patterns in acrylic paint on top of the ink. Quite time-consuming, but lots of fun.
