"All you need is love & matching outfits", by Amanda Hartmann

Dear Scrappy Clearly fans!

Wednesday share day!

I have had this bottle of crackle medium for ages and it was great to give it a crack (pun intended) to create this background for today's page.

HOW I MADE THE BACKGROUND

I made 3 layers to create this:

1. Paint coat of coloured paint. I used Dina Wakley Acrylic Paint with a brayer. I used  Magenta and Sky - which mixed to a perfect shade of purple. Allow to dry.

2. Next, I used a paint brush to paint on the clear crackle medium. Allow to dry. Similar product in store.

3. Lastly, I painted a coat of white gesso.

As it dried, this beautiful and brilliant crackle effect showed.

Here is the full page:

Other Scrapping clearly products used to make this page:

• I stamped the tag, and the edges with Staz on black ink, using Tim Holtz Faded Type.
• For splatters, I added splatters using Black soot Distress Oxide Ink and Liquitex Carbon Black ink.
• The black stickers are from my Tim Holtz sticker pack.

I finished the page with doilies, die cuts, flairs, acrylic chevrons, muslin, twine, Charms Creations....

Thanks for looking!

Amanda
