I actually spent quite a bit of time on this challenge. I knew a lot of people would have pics of babies with grandparents and such....so I thought outside the box a bit. At first my idea was to use pencils, but crayons were cheaper at the store and I liked the idea of the bright colors.
I drew with the crayons on a white piece of paper, then use 1 desk lamp for moody lighting. I took about 60 differnt pictures with different set-ups, but I liked this one the best because everything was exposed well and I liked the box of crayons in the background. I also liked how it looked like the orange crayon was coloring the scribbles on the box behind it. Barely any post processing.

This is a very original idea! I really like the crispness of the orange crayon. Your colors and composition are excellent, depth of focus perfect. This should place highly :)
