Fade Out

 I have no memory of trying out the crayon rubbed embossing technique but it was easy and I was happy with the result. One simply puts a piece of paper on an embossing folder, rubs with a white crayon (I think one can use any color, I used a light yellow), then brayer dye ink over the top. The crayon resists the ink.

I used three inks: speckled egg, then worn lipstick, finally festive berries. For today's MIX (vignette style), I used the two reds heavy in the center and faded out (the center was masked with a torn oval). I used a text stencil with rose gold embossing paste but it fades out and rather indistinct. I didn't care if it's readable. Finally added a diecut flower that Jaynie sent me; I think it's from a gel print.

This is also for today's F4A-a card for a crafty friend and yesterday's WT-crayons. Thanks for this trio of challenges, they worked well together.

The flower is beautiful. And so are r combination of rise hold pearls and paste. It took me a while to find a crayon that worked well for resist techniques, but eventually I did... probably why I have so many other crayons! For the first time in getting tempted by Speckled Egg.

You created such an interesting background with the rubbed crayon.

Great job with the crayon resist. I agree I think any crayon would work. Now I need to go try it again with some more colors. I love the colors you brayered on your card.

I really love that background with the rubbed crayon technique (I’m going to look that one up!) such a nice flow to your card I love the flower and embossing!
