Different things to do with crackle paint
We learned how to do different things with crackle paint this week. Not my favorite thing but good to know for those times when it's the best choice.
Tag 1 - uses crackle paint to create texture on the background. You can get a better contrast with a darker color of stain over the top of the dried crackle but I didn't have any. I like the subtle effect on this fairly well.
Tag 2 displays the tags that were coated in Rock Candy crackle paint and then distressed stained. This is more vibrant with the darker colors but I also like the effect of the silver stain. The butterflies are stamped on the tag with paint.

| Paint resist
These two tags show the use of paint as a resist. You rub paint all over your stamp and paint onto your surface. Once it is dry you rub stain over it to bring out the paint image. Both of these tags are using sticky back canvas. I did the technique twice because my first attempt (with the white flower) doesn't show up very well. Even though on camera it shows up beautifully. The yellow showed up better but the stain didn't bleed together very well. I may try this again when I have another stain color or two. Everything I have is so light just disappeared. The light colored areas on the tag are actually cotton candy stain.
