GinaK March Release Challenge #4 - Cracked Glass

Hi Guys,
I'm back again with another challenge entry for the GinaK March Release. This time I'd like to showcase my attempt at the Cracked Glass Challenge. I didn't have any UTE, but instead used Ranger crackle paint. This technique always reminds me of my grandmother's very old and delicate china, with spidery cracks everywhere. I LOVE how this card turned out and even took a close-up pic for you to see. While the crackle paint was wet, I spritzed the image with gold glimmer mist for extra effect.


Here is a picture of the finished card:

The image from the the GinaK 'Bold & Beautiful' stamp set and I created the background using the ink to paper technique with a Memento dew drop ink pad in Cantaloupe. The DP is from the GinaK Sundance paper pack.
Thanks for looking!
Hugs,
M

Pragtig!!! Myne het vir my nie genoeg gekraak nie. Volgende keer gaan ek ten minste 6 lae embossing poeier doen
