Embracing a New Technique


I love this new stamp set from Stampin' Up!---Embrace Life. I thought I'd break out of my comfort zone and try a new technique. Not the heat embossing....but bleaching! I've seen done at Splitcoast, but have never tried it. So...this is my first attempt. I embossed the individual bloom first..then with a very small tip paint brush I brushed on bleach. Not bad for my first time!

Congratulations on trying out a new technique. You did a wonderful job with the bleach. Did you know there is a castaway pad that you stamp, let dry, and then iron? It bleaches out colour, in a similar way to bleach.
