The WTUI Challenge today was simple - Color Something. The something I colored was the stamp. First I brushed water on w/c paper, then onto the stamp. I then colored with Garden Green & Elegant Eggplant WCW crayons. I've colored my stamps before with markers but never crayons. My paper dried out quickly, so I misted it after stamping. I let that dry then cut my papers. I then cut a nestie scallop rectangle & centered my flower under that. I marked around the scallops with marker. I didn't know I had some 'gunk' on my work space & it transferred to my card, so I added some ribbon. I also tried to erace a streak of chalk on the top. You can still see it, so it is what it is. I think the photo looks a little crooked but it isn't, just the photographer! I punched all the corners. I really like the amount of color when using the crayons.
Thanks for stopping by.

Your card is beautiful! I have that set--must get it out and use it! Kudos for covering an oops! with an embellishment--that's what creativity is all about! I'm so sorry SU discontinued Watercolor Wonder Crayons, but I still have all of mine--the retired colors and the new colors. Love using them.
