FAQs

What are the most popular uses for Distress Crayons?

Crayons are very versatile but can be used for smudging, blending and watercoloring.  For a blended effect, apply crayon onto the project and use your finger or a damp towel to get a smooth, matte finish. To achieve a watercolor effect, use a wet paintbrush or waterbrush to easily paint onto your project.

Do Distress Crayons come in the same colors as the other mediums in the Distress palette?

Yes. They're built to coordinate with the Distress palette, so colors you already know and love are available in  crayon form.

Can I use Distress Crayons on surfaces other than paper?

They're formulated for porous surfaces, so paper and similar materials are their sweet spot. Some crafters do use them on raw wood or other absorbent surfaces, but cardstock and watercolor paper are where they really shine.

What's the best way to blend Distress Crayons for beginners??

Go light on the water at first. You can always add more. A damp brush or blending tool dragged gently across the color gives you that smooth, watercolor-style blend, while a heavier hand with water tends to push colors together faster than you might want.

Are the crayons sold individually, or only in sets?

They come in coordinated sets, each built around shades that work well together. That makes starting a crayon collection less about guessing and more about picking a palette you like.  They are also available individually if you want to grab another of your favorite colors.
