Distress Crayons by Tim Holtz are water-reactive pigment sticks created for layered mixed media work, shading and depth. Their creamy formulation allows direct, controlled application and can be used dry or activated with water for natural, blended results.
They are ideal for aging effects, detailed accents and enhancing existing backgrounds. Distress Crayons work with fingers, brushes, sponges or stencils and blend naturally with Distress Inks and Distress Oxides.
