This project is for Holly's CAS challenge - Sunshine and Rainbows. I hope these colour samples qualify as CAS.
I recently purchased some Tim Holtz Distress Crayons. These pages are going into my book along with the names of all the colours.
After stamping the image I did about a dozen long swishes of crayon and then rubbed each streak with my fingers (no water). I then used pencils and alcohol markers over the top of the crayons. A few streaks of white paint were added.
Thank you for looking and I wish everyone a happyy, inky week.

What a beautiful stamp Susie - and those colours! I am crayon phobic as you know, but I am *so* tempted to have a go. Fabulous effect on the print background.

Oh WOW! What gorgeous color blending and shading on these! These just pop from the gallery! Your use of white to create shadows and highlights is just fantastic! Incredibly beautiful, Susie!
