Today's page was based on the Tag #4 challenge over on my Art Journal Techniques FaceBook group page. Crackle medium! Oh how I dislike this technique! Only because I haven't mastered the art of the crackling yet. No matter how many times I try it, I never seem to get it right every time, hit and miss for me. Then I go and draw the hearts upside down! Just wasn't my day today! Oh well, get used to it Jen, there'll be plenty more of those to come LOL.
