ATC-ABC Swap: "C" is for Crayon Resist

Here's a sample of the ATC's I made using Crayon Resist, a very easy technique. I stamped white CS using black ink, first using a text background stamp and overstamping with an open flower. I colored the centers and petals of the flowers with crayons and deliberately didn't fill in completely. I used several colors of Distress Inks to cover the images, then "polished" using a soft cloth. Finally I CB'ed the letter "C" from a scrap of copper colored foil. Quick and easy!!
