Bleach and paint strips.

I had a great day at Lainey's crop on Saturday , While all the Scrapbookers were busy making up their Layouts we at the card table were playing around with a bleach technique.These two cards were started at the crop and I finished them at home. The card top left is made from an Image ( Which I love and need ) that I borrowed from Tracy. I inked up the image with black ink and clear embossed , then I inked the whole image and highlighted with bleach. I layered it onto a co - ordinating paint sample strip.
Audrey gave me some stampboard to try and the card top right is a piece of stampboard stamped, inked, bleached and finished off with diamond glaze.I then layered it with co-ordinating colours from a paint sample strip. ( From your local hardware)
