I've made a fabulous tag today that i would like to share with you. It's made with Deco Art paints and Weathered Wood crackle medium and i have to say I AM IN LOVE!!
It's the first time i have used these products and i was truly amazed at the effect they give.
This is the finished project. It only took me around half an hour from start to finish.
Here's how i did it:
First i coated a large Range Tag in Windsor and Newton gesso and then dried it with my heat gun
I then painted it with Americana multi surface satin paint in Dark Scarlet and again dried it with my heat gun
When this was fully dried i applied an even coat of the Weathered Wood crackle medium to the tag and, again, dried with my heat gun.
I then applied a coat of american Multi surface satin paint in cocoa bean and dried it with my heat gun (it really got a work out today !!!) As it was drying i could see the crackle coming to life. Here is a close up of the tag.
I them proceeded to rub some Ranger archival ink in black over the tag to accentuate the crackles and the wooden effect. I added the number three from a recent stash i bought at an antique shop with gel medium then added the Treasure Valley plaque at the bottom.
that's it folks!!
Hop you enjoyed this process
