Hi friends! Happy Sunday! We are so honored to have the fantastic Gina Krupsky on our blog as a guest today! She’s sharing a really cool bleaching technique that works very well in conjunction with fun background stamps like those from Gina K Designs! In this feature, Gina showcases the Rose Lace, Gauze, and Diagonal Stripe background by making a fun gingham pattern out of it! Love the florals in the cards? Check out Rose Bouquet for a more traditional look and You Make Me Smile for a more modern look. Be sure to check out the video for more information and enjoy!
Thanks so much for stopping by today, and thanks to Gina for being our guest today!

Great technique and I love the inspiration cards. I have tried bleaching on cards before. But always with watercoloured backgrounds. Never thought of doing it on a stamped background!
I loved this technique and listening to you as you taught it. Thanks for sharing that with us, I’m going to try it for my craft sale that’s coming up in Sept. Out with the old bleach, in with the new……
I always love Gina K’s ideas. I’ve tried her bleach technique on colored cardstock, but I can’t wait to try this one. I also love her products, and I “need” that diagonal striped background die. Gorgeous cards.
What a great variation on the bleaching technique? It has me looking at all my background stamps though I really think I need the Diagonal Stripe bkgd — it is a very unique design.
I have never seen a bleaching technique but it does look really cool! I’m heading over to watch the video on it now and hope to try it soon myself. Thanks for the inspiration :)

I’ve tried this before and it’s fun how different papers react to the bleach. I already follow by email.

That’s an amazing look! I’ve tried using bleach before but mine wasn’t very strong so it wasn’t nearly as successful as this.
Gorgeous cards! Love the technique.
