Description:
On your dark colored ATC, paint a thin layer of white glue, (real school glue like Elmers, not your craft glue) with a foam brush or paint brush. Let it dry just till it is tacky but not quite dry. That is an important step. so don't walk away from your project. Paint acrylic paint over the glued ATC & let dry completely. You should then see the crackle. Now make your beautiful ATC making sure you can see some or most of the crackle. Two partners will each receive one ATC.

I sat down tonight to work on this swap. Wow, this is so cool. I will be using this technique again.

Couldn't agree more.I've always used a dedicated crackle product and can't believe how an ordinary glue can give such wonderful effects.
