Wax on Wax off!

Hi all!  Tonight's post is a fun and easy technique for you to try.  It's called
Wax on Wax off.  What you start with is a piece of glossy white cardstock.
Stamp a line art image with basic black ink, NOT staz on.  It will not work
with  this technique.  Once you stamp the image, let it dry for about 10 mins.
Once dry take a white crayon and color in the parts you will want to remain
white.   Once done you will then take a brayer and ink it up with the color
of your choice and run it over the cardstock back in forth til you get the
desired color of the ink.  Then take a piece of kleenx and wipe away the
extra ink from the image that is to remain white.  Then take and decorate
the rest of the card.  The stamp set used here is the Fifth Avenue Floral.
You can see in the photo above where I have colored the rose in with
the white crayon.   Have fun trying this!  If you have questions let me know! xoxo
