HIMCR #63 - Technique

Hello Friends!

I hope everyone had a great week!  My week was busy and good for the most part.  My laptop crashed on Wed. but I have my new hard drive ordered so it will be here in a few days. 

This week at HIMCR it is Technique:  Distressing or Antiquing!  Or both!  I decide to make a wall hanging for my husband to hang up by his desk once we redo our computer/craft room. 

I bought a 12x12 piece of wood at Michael's and put 2 coats of Tim Holtz Distress crackle paint Black spot.  I cut out a treasure map and put a coat of TH Distress Stain vintage photo on and fold it up again and again and rubbed some black ink on it.  On the picture I added a coat of TH Distress crackle paint clear rock candy to it and over the red paint I put on the wood behind the treasure map.  One more layer of crackle paint on the title and this time I used picket fence and after it dried I added Distress Stain Peeled paint.  Added 2 pirate coins we had left over from my daughter's birthday party a few months ago.

I think that covers all the steps but if you have any questions just let me know.

Thanks!
