your plain paper and start to decorate it with any pattern of
your choice using the wax crayons.

Make
it bold! |
|
Brush
over the whole area. |
|
Step

Paint
the design liberally with some ink covering the whole paper.
The wax acts as a resist so will shine through the ink.

different coloured inks, stamp patterns all over the paper.
