I just can't resist it!

Who can resist getting a swap card such as this - with bright colors, an awesome Crayon Resist technique, and great workmanship!

This is a Blogger swap card made by Julie Purdum at Rubber Room Ramblings



Stamps: Doodle That, Itty Bitty Backgrounds, Much Appreciated all by Stampin' Up!
Inks: Tempting Turquoise, White Craft, Real Red and Jet Black Staz-on - Markers, red, yellow and green
Cardstock: Glossy White, YoYo Yellow, Real Red and Whisper White
Accessories: Brayer, White gel pen, Turquoise grosgrain, red brads, paper piercer and white crayon

To achieve this look, Julie had to color everything with the white crayon that she did not want to be turquoise. She also wanted some outline in white around the images.

After coloring everything white, she brayered with turquoise, let dry completely, then colored in with markers and let dry again.

She made one big sheet of this and cut it up. If you do this, Julie recommends you be sure it is dry before cutting or coloring in.
