A pair of gesso resit cards using Distress Crayons and a baby wipe :D I love this technique, and it worked brilliantly with this Mandala stencil free with issue 153 of Papercraft Essentials :D Simply lay down a thin layer of gesso onto you card, allow to dry, then cover with Distress Crayons (blending with your fingers). To create your pattern, add your stencil on top, then take a damp baby wipe and wipe away the colour from the open areas :D Simple!! :D I also added some over stenciling with Gilding Polish and used heat embossing for the sentiments, then finished with a scattering of sequins and gems :D Hope you liked the cards and the video :D
