Welcome to Day 8 of a 30 Day Cracklathon with polymer clay. I'll be creating a different crackle veneer every day for a whole month.

Today I'll be using metal leaf and alcohol inks to create this vintage looking polymer clay crackle veneer. Keep in mind that depending on the alcohol inks you use you can create vintage or colorful veneers.

I have links to some tutorials in the suggested links box below the video, where I create and use bright alcohol inks on foil, so be sure to check those out.

This is a fun, easy technique and is a step up from just putting metal leaf on polymer clay. Play around with the color of metal leaf and the backing clay for a different effect each time.


You will need the following supplies:

  • Polymer Clay of any color
  • Metal Leaf
  • Alcohol Inks
