I saw this post on Wendy Vecchi's blog (http://studio490art.blogspot.com/201...for-queen.html) and knew I had to try it. I followed her directions, using matte gel to coat the bottle first. Then I spread on a thick layer of rock candy crackle paint and let dry. I colored with pumice stone distress stain and went over it with a couple other colors of brown distress ink and then rubbed gold pigment over it for an opaque shimmer. I decorated with a Red Lead sentiment in an ornate frame and ribbons, which I adhered to the bottle with double stick tape. I finished it off with some paper roses and seam binding bow. It's worth mentioning that before I embellished it, I sealed the whole thing with a spray sealer.
