Melted Crayon - Adding Detail

This little video shows you how to use the melted crayon technique on a die cut and then etch into it to bring out details. The etched lines may then be covered in crayon again to darken them or left as light lines.

The die cut is available from www.paperthreads.com; just laury
For a limited time I will be giving away the die cut files for this little fish on my blog justlaury.paperthreads.com

@sunkissbrown

I have seen them at Michaels Craft Store and on several quilting/sewing online stores. You could also check Amazon. Glad you like the video.

@2909ism

It is a little craft iron - Clover makes them. You need a small iron without holes there are several on the market. It is also helpful to have adjustable heat. You do not want smoking crayons! :)

Luck
