Edited to add - There was a question regarding coloring on the Crumb Cake card stock. I colored directly on the card stock with my crayons and then blended slightly with my blender pen. You have to be careful with the blender pen because it can cause the card stock to pill. I started with the lightest color and gradually added darker colors in various places for shading. Blending very carefully each time I added a new color. Hope this helps. It's a great way to color even if it is a little time consuming. Colored pencils would work the same way and probably wouldn't need as much blending. Maybe I'll try that next time!

Saw this on SCS and had to get more details. Did the WWC work on crumb cake or did you do a layer of white as a base or what? LOVE it.
