This week, Linda's Grungy Monday challenge is to use Rock Candy - crackle paint or stickles or both. check out Lord Tim's video here
I took the large art part flower and used wild honey distress stain (perhaps I should have used something to cover the art part first!) and stamped Wendy's spotty background across it in Vermillion archival ink.
I used rock candy crackle over the grungepaper flower (coloured with wild honey again) and have rubbed dusty concord over the crackles.
Added a circle cut from the Kraft stack, covered with stickles that doesn't show up in the photo very well!
Now you may not believe me, but that is the regular, clear, rock candy distress stickles around the petals - it's just when it's dried it has picked up the colour of the wild honey underneath... honest! I left it overnight so didn't see it until today, otherwise I'd probably have wiped it off.
Just got to find "something" to stick the flower in now so I can display it somewhere.......
And, because Simon Says challenge this week is "anything goes" this is entered for that too.
(Now, I am going to hit the publish button at work, so I hope my work pc will then let me link the pictures to the challenges (it doesn't always) otherwise I will have to remember when I get home....)

This is lovely
Time to decorate a plant pot (or small tin bucket) and then your lovely flower can stand inside. A bit of Polyfilla in the base and voila - sand to fill up and your done. Great decoration!
So cool, love it
