Bleach Technique


This is a super simple card we made at a workshop using the bleach technique. To achieve this bleach effect, place paper towels on a plate and pour bleach directly onto paper towels. Ink stamp by pressing directly on the bleach soaked paper towels and then immediately onto card.

The verse is from the Trust God set and the flowers from the Secret Garden set in the spring catalog. I pulled out some paper that wasn't filed according to color, and I believe the light color is pale plum, and the background paper may be wild wisteria
