floral birthday - crayon resist technique

New techniques are always fun and this is no exception... crayon resist.  That was the challenge over at Tuesday Morning Sketches this week.  They have a couple of links to great tuts, so go check it out!

I am also submitting this to Whimsical Wednesdays'  back-to-basics challenge to go 'old school' - no Cricut.  

This card is for a girl who likes petunias, so I found clipart, printed it, crayoned, oops, I mean colored,  and inked it.



cardstock, ribbon, brads, stamp all from my stash
Nestabilites for the shape

Thanks for looking!!!!
