Your crayon resist cards are beautiful!! You've added just the right amount of white in all the right places. Would I be able to do this with classic ink instead of StazOn?

Thank-you for all the wonderful compliments! This is definitely one of my favorite techs! It is also very easy to do! Here are the directions:
Glossy Crayon Resist
Materials:
Glossy White Cardstock
StazOn Ink(s)(or another permanent ink)
Classic Ink(s)
Sponges or Brayer
White Crayon
Image Stamp(s)
Tissue
Cardstock for card & layering
Embellishments of choice
Directions:
Use StazOn (permanent) ink to stamp images onto glossy cardstock. Let dry. Highlight areas on stamped images with white crayon. Use a sponge or brayer to apply classic ink color(s). Wipe off excess ink with tissue to allow the white crayoned areas to stand out. Layer onto card and embellish as desired. This technique works great on projects that need “snow” on them, such as pine branches.
