Bleach sample



This is a thank you for a very special person! The technique seemed to be the favorite of the September group and very simple using a bleach pen. I've hesitated to use bleach with a stamping group for fear of ruining someone's clothes, but the bleach pen is pretty trusty. We just squeezed a little bit of it in a palette tray and painted the leaf with a small paintbrush. You never know what you will get from the cardstock when you bleach it. This Always Artichoke seemed to come out with a little red, but it may have been the Brown Stazon that we stamped with first, I'm not really sure which, but it is nice! Chocolate chip, Real Red cardstock with a bit of choc chip tafetta ribbon. The stamp sets are With Gratitude and my old standby, Wonderful Words. Thank heavens Stampin' Up didn't retire that one! Stop by again.......I have to go get this in the mailbox!
