Crackled Wedding card with video tutorial

Hi everyone,

It's Monday and that means a new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge! This week it's all about "Wedding/Anniversaries". And because it's the beginning of the month we're also showcasing, and this time it's Prima Marketing! I just love those products, especially the Finnabair line.

As a said I love Prima Marketing, they have amazing products. As the challenge this week is Wedding, I chose the Pretty Pale Paper Pad to collage with. I had some scraps left from another project I used this gorgeous paper for. After I finished collaging I applied a layer of Distress Crackle Paint Rock Candy. Mine is really fluid and this time I finally got some nice crackles!


 

So I had to make those beautiful crackles visible I used Alcohol Ink Mushroom. I saw Stacy do it, but I didn′t get the pretty result she got. The color also changed after a few minutes, not sure what happened, but went over it with Opal Magic Rose Gold paint and Distress Paint Spun Sugar to cover it up. The second attempt to make the crackle more visible was a winner, the trusty Distress Crayon Walnut Stain. It gets in the cracks when you rub it in with your finger and with a baby wipe it′s easy to get the rest off. To give it more interest I used Infusions Sunset Beach and Nuvo Shimmer Powder Catherine Wheel.
