Add a rainbow of color to your mixed media projects with the Set 1 Distress Crayons by Tim Holtz for Ranger Ink. These distress crayons are formulated to achieve vibrant coloring effects on porous surfaces and the smooth water-reactive pigments are perfect for creating brilliant backgrounds, smudge effects, watercolor designs, and so much more. This set includes six crayons (Picked Raspberry, Spiced Marmalade, Mustard Seed, Twisted Citron, Mermaid Lagoon, and Peacock Feathers) that are great when blending with water and then layering with Distress Inks or Stains (sold separately) for lots of fun projects!
Most of the people I know are serious artist's and want a product that does what it is promoted to do. These Distress Crayons as I tried in various ways to use them are not completely water soluble. They leave marks on the paper if they are used in a writing/coloring method, and aren't as vibrant as the video's I've seen demonstrating them.
I would however recommend them to a beginning artist.
When I first heard about the distress crayons I thought “yea, just another fad that’ll come and go in no time”, but kept seeing projects across the web made using these and the colors were so vibrant and beautiful. So I took the plunge and now own three different sets, they’re not going anywhere! I use them often when making tags, cards or banners with the Julie Nutting paper doll stamps/dies, which I absolutely love!
Love the creaminess of these and that they won't break as easily as my other brand crayons. And service....Wow! Came in 2 days, and they're always so nice.
I got all three and look forward to using them. I have not ever had a problem or been disappointed with any Tim Holtz products. Also love Scrapbook.com

Love these. Fun to play with and I tried several techniques. They blend beautifully. I like them when I gesso the surfac first, they seem to spread and blend best this way, but still work on "naked" surface too. I also used them with my stencils it several ways with great results.
I bought a set when they first came out, after using them one time I knew I had to get the others. I now have all 3 sets. Highly recommend them.
I love the creamy texture. You can get this lines or thicker as well as use a water brush to get a watercolor effect.
These crayons provide new and fun colors to the rest of the Tim Holtz palate. (They may be my fave....)
