If you have not tried these crayons...
Well....you just oughta...
They are FABULOUS...
Kind of like gelatos, but better. The most
important thing about these crayons is that they
won"t react with water unless you want
won"t react with water unless you want
them to, all you have to do is touch it.
Get ready to get your fingers dirty!
Tag #1 Distress Crayon Smudge
all over a layer of Texture Paste.
Yep I put only warm colors on here...
guess I need to make one with the
cool colors....YUMMY!
Tag #2 Distress Crayon Gesso Fresco
paper towel to lift color.
Tag #3 Distress Crayon Textured Resist
The crayons were used like a modeling paste for this tag.
It's just a really thin layer used on the stencil and you go
over it with you finger and continue to smudge inside the stencil.
I really enjoyed this.
As I began inking this tag and the design appeared,
I was like Ahhhh, the pink is soooo soft and pretty, just
what I wanted to see. This is Tim's "Scribble" stencil.
Tag #4 Watercolor Resist
Tag #5 Distress Crayon Blended Background
crayons....smooth like butter and see how the
colors LoVe each other....Just by blending with
water ...watercoloring with crayons...XOXO
Tag #6 Distress Crayon Layered Coloring
collage medium...I used "CRAZING,"
(Two coats, first with a brush and another....
I used my finger -as suggested by the
Master himself- Tim Holtz.)
let dry, apply color with Distress Crayons,
smooth/blend colors, (I used my fingers),
you can also use your water brush!
Next dry the colors (this sets them),
then use Picket Fence Distress Crayon
to hi-light certain edges of your stamped images.
Ohhh this Crazing Collage Medium
is just Fabulous here....see all those
teeny, tiny cracks. LoVe them!

It's great to see how much fun you are having with the crayons. Those, "ooh, the pink's so soft and pretty" moments are what it's all about! I'm not taking the class and only have one crayon (Antique Linen) but if I get serious about using them, this class looks like a great way to learn what they can do. Thanks for the peek!
