Water bleaching ...

No words of wisdom today ... just a card:



I created the panel buy covering a piece of card with Picked Raspberry distress ink.  I then stamped and heat embossed the panel with a small peony stamp.  I "bleached" the colour from the flowers with water and added a sentiment heat embossed onto vellum.  I die cut a a stitched rectangle and adhered it to a piece of fun foam before mounting it on to the card.

I am entering the following challenges:

"Less is More" #281 - the theme is 'Faux Bleaching'

Penny Black and More June Challenge - Flower Power

Enjoy!

  2. So elegant and pretty! I love the bright embossed outlines which add impact and really set off the faux bleaching well. Great job!
