Weathered wood is a popular term in the papercrafting world and as in the tutorial I specify the surface the technique is put on to, is mount board, I think its ok.

If you could just clarify that the technique you are linking to was originally intended for a mountboard/ thin card surface, and any further experimentation is optional.

Do let me know how you get on, if you try it on wood.

Best wishes

Billie :)

I will correct that as soon as possible. And I will have to try that technique on wood and let you know.
Thanks,
Linda

Thanks for linking to me, my only concern there is that the wording currently suggests that this technique is suitable for making wood look aged. My techniques are based on working on card or paper.

I have only tried this technique on mount board, and couldn’t say what the results would be if used directly on to wood. Also the specific acrylic paint I am using is artist quality, not sure it would be suitable for home decor or external uses.

If you try the technique on wood, do let me know the results, it would be interesting to see how they turned out.

Best wishes

Billie :)

Glad you like it, I put the written details up as well, as then people can use the Translate This site to get the information in any language that suits them ;)

Watch out which shade of Titan Buff you use, the Cryla one is a nice neutral colour, the Winsor and Newton version Titanium Buff is much more yellow so needs more blending out ;)

As soon as time permits I must give it a try as it looks so good.:)
