cardstock after rubbing with brown crayon - note color variations...
rub some areas with black crayon, again making some areas darker and some lighter...
finished embossed background, trim to 5X4...
mark 2 1/2" down at left side. draw line from mark to lower right corner & upper right corner. then mark 1/4" above and below 2 1/2" mark and 1/4" to left of corner marks and draw lines to connect...
cut out pieces, distress edges with black crayon and adhere to front of 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" white cardstock card...
scribble over a 4 X 6 piece of white cardstock using orange and red crayon...
add more scribbles with brown and yellow crayons...
crumple a piece of waxed paper...
place waxed paper over "scribbled" cardstock and iron - add a cover sheet when using a "good" iron or use a "craft" iron...
ironing melts crayon to gently blend, waxed paper creases add some texture to the design...
