I used stamps from brett-weldele--steampunk-selfies-ladies and also paperartsy -emma-godfrey-18. To make the crackle I used mostly decoart goodies - I am afraid my process pictures didn't really happen - I got the starting point....
Here was me applying paperartsy fresco paint to the tando creative parts and allowing it to dry...
Next I added weathered wood crackle from decoart and when dry I added two different colours of fresco paint - green on one and purple on another. Thats when the main crackle appeared. I also experimented with a smaller eggshell crackle but was less successful.
Here's a closer look ....
these show the crackle pretty well ...
Here's the whole piece again!
I hope I have tempted you to join us - go on - have a bit of fun with some crackle!
I would like to enter this into mixedmediamc 25-2nd-year - dimension

ReplyDeleteVery cool weathered crackle - I'm always meaning to try colours other than my usual white, and here's a great nudge to do it! Love that splayed out frame - so clever and really effective.
