Rust and Crackle Star Ornament

Dear Friends

I am sharing a Rust and Crackle star using DecoArt supplies. I have used 

DecoArt Texture Sand paste 

DecoArt Fluid Acrylics in 

Transparent Red Iron Oxide

English Red Oxide

Transparent Yellow Iron Oxide

Interference Blue

Metallic Lustre Silver Spark

I actually altered a glass star ornament I had made in my previous post which looked like this .............

I added Sand texture paste using a palette knife around the textures and let it dry and then using various fluid acrylics I got the rust effect. Andy Skinner has a fantastic series of You tube videos demonstrating the Rust Technique which can be seen here
