Wax Crayon Resist Challenge-OCT

Wax Crayon resist-
Smaller Butterfly Card-I followed April’s instructions: stamped image in permanent black ink on glossy card stock. Filled in and colored some areas on the image with a crayon including designs within the inked areas. Brayer over the entire piece with Kaleidacolor Spectrum dye inkpad. Wipe ink of waxed areas. Basic Gray stamp.

Larger butterfly Card- Changes I made after 1st card: The ink did not brayer on my paper evenly without saturation with color…I tried different inkpads and brayer and finally decided to use distress inks. I broke my crayon to get a sharp edge to color fine line details. I found it was helpful to make a specific plan for the order of crayon coloring so I did not miss areas. Card base is created with an embossing folder, inked and colored with Viva’s Gold Pearl Pen.

Thanks April for hosting the challenge!

I really like both of your cards. Always fun to see how one image can look so different depending on how we use it. Great job, Jan!

REally neat how you used the crayon to accent! Love the BG too!

These are wonderful too. That butterfly is great. The crayon resist turned out great. Those flowers on the one card really catch the eye. Thank you for sharing.
