Make Your Decorative Paper
Crayola crayons are on sale for 25 cents right now, so why not take advantage and make some paper.
Place a towel or sheet (something you do not care to get crayon on) over your ironing board. Lay your sheet of white card stock, or I guess you could use any color, flat on your towel. Put tin foil on your iron plate and after it heats up, hold it so the plate is flat and upright.
Press your crayons and create little puddles, as small or as big as you would like, on to the foil. Flip your iron over and move across your paper. Do this with as many colors as you want, you can even use glitter crayons, until you have your desired effect.
Here are two different ones I made and a close-up. Thanks for looking and Happy Scrapping!
