I embossed watercolor paper with the Floral Fantasy embossing folder. I tore the paper off an orange glitter crayon and rubbed the side of it over the embossed surface. Then I sprayed my paper using Mango Lemonade and Orange Juice Memories Mists sprays. I went back over the embossed surface with a little more crayon for contrast. I love the effect.
The strip of paper with the Inkadinkado stamped sentiment is sprayed with both Memories Mists before embossing the sentiment. I am so in love with these fun Mylar Blossoms from Creative Impressions.

Hi Stef! This card is amazing! Love the gold/yellow and orange tones...and that big beautiful bloom that matches that pretty Cuttlebugging!

Oh my stars, am I happy to have discovered your card! Thanks so much for the link to Mel's blog, too! I came searching for crayon resist ideas for an upcoming class and this is even better (and will sell Cuttlebug folders even faster, too!) Thank you so much, and your card is gorgeous! Orange is my new favorite color!
