New Technique...

Hi! I am back with a card which I made as part of the 30 Day Coloring Challenge. Though I have been painting almost everyday, I have managed to do very few complete cards. This is one of them.



I used some red handmade paper as the card base and stamped some butterflies with Versamark ink. Then I heat embossed with black EP. I used some household bleach to 'paint' the flowers with a regular paint brush. The sentiment is from Bo Bunny and stamped on a piece of cream paper.

I am entering this card in the following challenges:

30 Day Coloring Challenge:




Addicted to CAS Challenge #65 - Butterfly



Creatalicious Challenges #75 - Butterflies

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Love,
Nan

PS: Also entering my card into The Card Concept #37 - Butterfly Effect


I would describe my style as Clean & Graphic. I was very inspired by the collage of butterflies and the embossed outlines.

  7. Lovely! I haven't done bleach coloring in years! I have way too much colored cardstock to last me lifetimes, so might just need to start using it as coloring bases. I've been playing with coloring on cardstock without the bleaching -- either straight or whitewashing it with pigment ink. Completely forgot about bleaching! lol
