Wax Resist Monthly Challenge at SweetStamps

Good morning everyone-
It's the 15th of the month and that means it is time for another monthly challenge over at SweetStamps. 
This weeks challenge is:
WAX RESIST

This is the first time, I have ever done this technique and I was pretty excited about doing it.
I just wonder....how are these amazing techniques found/created..by accident? 
Anyways, here is what I created as my sample.
You can find a tutorial for this technique HERE
When I took the wax paper off the glossy paper, I couldn't see anything and I thought, great it didn't work.
Once I started applying the ink...the image started coming through, like magic!!
