Hi everyone, and welcome to my blog! I
recently purchased some Kroma Crackle from the Flying Unicorn store and read up on it.
Apparently it has a long drying time for a couple of days to get the crackle
effect BUT I found this article on the Kroma site on how to do it in 5 minutes,
sooooo that is what I am showing you today!
Step One:
I have taken plain white cardstock for this layout and
distressed the edges. Then I applied some Shimmerz Spritz in Cotton Candy.
I now applied some Shimmerz Vibez Before Dawn to where I will be using the
Kroma Crackle. I also let it run down the page some and added a few splats for a cool effect.
Use a white glue and do a layer where you will be places the
crackle.
While the glue is wet I have added more Shimmerz Spritz Cotton Candy on top for
colors. Now use your heat tool and dry
this on a low setting, It might take a couple of minutes.
Step Five:
Use your finger and spread around a nice thick layer of
Kroma Crackle.
Again use your heat tool on a low setting and start to dry
this. You will see it start to turn white fairly quickly and the cracks will
start to appear.
Here is the finished Crackle look.
And here is my layout that I have created with this
background. I have used 13ARTS in the background, fussy cut some bricks for the
top. I used some black gesso on the Green Tara flowers and black Gelatos around the edges
to finish it off. I also used 2 of the new yummy Flying Unicorn Adornments
pieces.
The flowers and trims are from Green Tara. I have used some Shimmerz to color some of them to match my layout colors.
I hope you enjoyed this quick way to use your Kroma Crackle and give it a try. Have a great week everyone and happy scrapping :)
