Crackle paint and decoupage on waste bottle

I love to recycle!!!So here's another one..on an olive oil bottle .
I used Hobby Ideas crackling medium.Here's how:
1)Apply a coat of blue acrylic color
2)Let it dry completely.
3)Apply a coat of crackling medium on top of the blue and let it dry too.
4)Apply white fevicryl acrylic color  when the medium is toroughly dry.
Then I cut decoupage  images from the vintage moth (freebies) and pasted with modge-podge.If you like decoupage you can visit these lovely  blogs Sandra's blog and Maria's blog .Cheers!

Decoupage on waste bottle

Made this gift jar using a waste bottle (shown above right).Painted using pink and white acrylic colors and tiny decoupage flowers from a decoupage image set bought from Hobby Ideas. Also stamped some flower images on white tissue paper using purple ink and  some of those for decoupage too.

Hand-made decoupage tray




Hi y'all!Got down to some other forms of crafting other than card-making.
Had bought a wooden tray from Hobby Ideas almost a year back and couldn't think of how to paint it.The black color comes from a series of failed attempts at using crackle paint in the right way.I just couldn't get the right combination of colors.In the end it looked like a crazy abstract expressionist piece!So went ahead and colored it black!The sunflowers  decoupage paper is from Hobby Ideas.Pasted the images using modge-podge.I still have to paint  a top layer of varnish though.Hope you like it! suggestions are welcome as to what combo of colors would look good on something like a wooden tray.
