It’s been forever since I’ve used bleach with my stamping, so when Gina planned on sharing a video using the technique on StampTV today, I definitely wanted to play along!!
I stamped the image from Easter Blessings with VersaMark ink & embossed with black detail embossing powder. I chose to ‘paint’ my Easter Lilies with bleach on kraft cardstock; testing it first since it’s a light color I wasn’t sure how much of a difference the bleach would make. I sure like the subtle change, the lilies are a pale peach color. I colored in the leaves & grass with my peerless watercolors, I love how they look on kraft, I hadn’t tried that before and know it won’t be the last time either! I chose to keep my card layers & embellishments to a minimum to have a somewhat Clean & Simple card!! I love the look of the three neutrals: black, white & kraft!
I hope you have a chance to check out Gina’s new video and play along! If you upload a card using the technique and upload on stampTV before next week Wednesday, you will be eligible to win a free stamp set valued at $24.95 or less! Sweet!
Thanks for visiting me today – see y’all soon!

Love the effect of the bleach on the kraft and it looks super against the green - love the cuttled bg too!
