Hello there! Tracey G. here today and I want to share with you a card I created using Leaky Shed Studio chipboard.

I started with the Prima background paper,which I then distressed and layered. I shaded under the Victorian Mirror frame with Tim Holtz Distress Paint in Spun Sugar.

To get the fresco effect on the frame,first I painted the whole surface with tan acrylic paint. Once that was dry,I added various shades of gelatos in brown,peach,pink and blue. I thickly applied Ranger crackle medium and let it sit overnight. Once,dried and crackled,I added Rub n Buff in Patina around my edges and in some of the cracks.

The cross is a combination of two of the shapes in this Cross Set of five. After coloring with gelatos and the same Patina Rub n Buff,I added copper microbeads using Ranger glossy accents and embellished the ends with Viva Copper Pen.

Thanks for stopping by today!
