Best Answer

for my daughters science project here is what we did.

1/2 cup salt

1 cup flour

1/2 cup cold brewed coffee

1 cup used coffee grinds

mix together add more flour if necessary until it is like really really thick Pizza dough.

flatten in a pan sprayed with cooking spray. find shells, bugs, leaves, fish bones or other things to make impressions with. spray the items before pressing them into the "dough". let dry for about 12 hours then remove the items so that the dough under them dries completely. it takes about three days for a whole tray to dry out. it looks like real fossilized dirt!!! the salt re-crystalizes giving it a cool effect. and the impressions are really clear. and they smell good too!

I don't see why you couldn't use a similar recipe using dirt instead of coffee grinds and water instead of liquid coffee. try it, you might be surprised.

How do people make fossils?

People don't make fossils. Fossils are remains of or the impressions of organisms which were once alive.

How do you make a fake slam attax card?

To be honest with you, creating fake sports memorabilia is a felony, and creating fake WWE merchandise, is such a serious offense, that WWE will make sure you never the light of day again. Not only is that not a good question to ask in the first place, but you asked it on the internet, and WWE can find you. Nice going man, I suggest not asking people to help you do this.
