lets crackle

at last with the help of vick i have sorted out the crackle technique looks like my pva was no good far too thin so replaced it with some nice thick art pva and now it works a treat. here are a few items i have crackled

 this is the lid which i rushed upstairs and crackled as soon as i got my new pva and it worked yeah
next day when properly dry decided to pain it with pansies

 this large frame i undercoated with gold then pva then cream emulsion lovely subtle crackle
then painted with sweet peas
the frame below is made the same its just a small frame that needed painting

hope you like these new items
will have to see what i can crackle today lol
