Tutorial: How to make Prehistoric Tracks

I was waiting for an explanation from Tomomi on how she create the VERY cool dinosaur tracks on her layout before I posted this and she was nice enough to include step-by-step photos too!!
Look closer...aren't these dino prints so cool!? I instantly recognized them as our "Snag'em Stamp" but couldn't figure out how she got the cool crackled texture.
Supplies needed: 
Stamp the track image on some cardstock:
Cut out the print with an xacto knife:
Here's the image after you cut away the stamped images:

Now you'll need some Crackle Paint:

Paint over the stencil, like this:


Let the paint dry and you're done. Cool technique huh??
