Crayon Resist

Crayon Resist with your Cuttlebug!
This was the challenge on the Cuttlebug challenge this week!

Interesting, huh?
Have you tried it yet! The technique's been around for quite a while. Though I never tried it, or if I did it was so long ago I don't remember.
It's really rather basic, ink does not "stick" to the crayon wax.
Really, it's that easy! I'll show you!
Let's just try it on some scrap paper. Go and find a crayon, go ahead, I'll wait......
now draw a circle and color it in. Solid. Now take some ink and sponge it all over and around the circle. Let it dry for a minute and with a tissue wipe over the paper. Did it work? Did the crayon color show through?
Here's an example with a Cuttlebug folder...
1. emboss
2. leave your cs in the folder (so it doesn't collapse) and using the flat side of a crayon, color over pressing pretty hard.
3. now ink up your sponge and cover your cs with ink.
4. let it dry for a minute then with a tissue wipe over the cs.
the ink will come off the waxed areas.
That's it!

I knew you could do it! With everything you've accomplished in your life already, this was easy peasy! If you make a card with this technique, I would love to see it, drop me a link! I pray for you, a peaceful day, and that the only thing to stick to you would be love and blessings!
