When I went to the Stampscapes retreat this year, my stampin' sister Barb G rekindled my love for wax. :o) I'm trying different styles and just having fun! I have once again taken over the kitchen counter.
I stamped the images first and then added the wax in sections. One of the joys of using wax is the surprising outcome. If you are not happy with it, you can reheat it and create a different design. I can honestly say I have not discarded one piece of card stock I put wax on. Now I have reheat many, but discarded none. :o)

These are awesome. I have never tried wax but it looks like lots of fun and I love the wonderful results you achieved with them. Your work is absolutely wonderful. You and Barb G. are both great wax artists.
