combine equal amounts of cheapest toothpaste and aloe lotion or gel
apply with brushes, or toothpicks
or use flour and water mix
let dry and crackle by wadding up fabric with care
paint over with tempera or acrylic paints
let dry or partially dry
wash
leaving only a stain from paint or a solid paint if acrylic is let to dry completely
