We decided to do a one day escape trip to Crescent Lake. It's been 8 months since our last trip here. It's beautiful, sunny and hot! We were able to catch up on some spring yard work. The lawn is mown and the flowerbed is weeded. Awe, now to relax!

Tuesday Crafting Tip: Wax Resist Embossing Folder Technique

If you're like me, are you always looking for ways to get more out of my crafting supplies? How about another way to use your embossing folders? Check out this fun technique using a white candle, an embossing folder and a little ink "paint".

I tried several embossing folders and I found that the folds with more coverage designs worked best.

Step 1: Open the embossing folder. Place a piece of white card stock on the top section of the folder. (the non-Stampin'Up! labeled side)
Step 2: While holding the paper tightly to the folder, rub all over with a small white votive candle or a white crayon.
Step 3: Gently brush off any loose wax pieces. Water down some ink with water and paint the card stock with the ink "paint".
Step 4: Let ink dry. Gently wipe off any ink that might be on the wax.
Step 5: Using a palette knife, you can scrap off the wax to brighten the white card stock underneath. This is an optional step.
Step 6: Create a card using your newly created emboss resist piece of card stock.
