What gorgeous cards! Love those background stamps! I’ve never tried bleaching before but this really makes me want to give it a try. Thanks for the inspiration, Gina!
These are so beautiful Gina and I love your stamps. This is an awesome technique. I remember doing the bleach technique years ago on coloured cs but not inked backgrounds. You can bet I will be trying it! TFS!
Great cards, Gina! I would not have thought to use bleach over an inked background but I love the look and will definitely be giving this technique a try. Thanks for the inspiration and great tutorial!
What an interesting technique and I love all of the cards!! We don’t use liquid bleach, but a different form of it, so I guess maybe I’ll be going out and buying a very small bottle of liquid bleach, LOL!! This looks really fun and the combinations are really endless! Thanks for sharing .
This technique rocks! I really love your cards—so unique and creative. I will be trying this out over the weekend for sure. Thanks for the excellent video tutorial!
