Something Saturday - Bleach or White?

 Hi There Creators

Before I forget, there is an AMAZING special on this month, not only are the new catalogue (and new Online Products) live, but there is a joining special, pick out $303 of goodies but only pay $169!!  Ask me if you're interested and want to know more, or if you know you want to take the plunge, click here: Join Heather's Team.

Today I thought I'd play around with a spot of bleach stamping, then decided to throw white into the mix too, it's interesting what a difference it makes, I like both!  Bleach is fascinating when it reacts with different cardstocks (interestingly didn't work on our black cardstock at all!)  I used Pecan Pie card.

To create these cards I also needed: 

Stazon Black Ink Pad   

white Craft Ink 

You are Remarkable Stamp set  

And bleach (in my case domestos 🤣)  Oh and a pointy paintbrush

First up you stamp using Stazon (because it stays on! - in particular with bleach and waterbased components) it wouldn't work with alcohol based components, just so you know!

Then you paint either the white craft ink on, or the bleach on

once it dries you then add some colour, and voila......

These 2 both got coloured in with Gorgeous Grape ink for the flower, the bleach changes the colour 😃

And these 2 got the Petunia Pop colour (which is the cardstock underneath, so you can compare the colour😉)

To make the cards up I also used some Versamark ink  to create the pretty background, I love the way that as a "watermark" ink it just creates this slightly darker colour on the coloured cardstock (one colour fits all as it were! 😃)

I hope this inspires you to have a go too.

Something Saturday - Bleach and More Wishes

 Hi there Creators

Today I was playing with the fabulous More Wishes Stamp set, one of my favourite saying's/word sets in the annual catalogue is Biggest Wish and I was excited to see More Wishes which uses the same fonts and lettering size so they coordinate together.

I was trying to work out a way to coordinate them in with a piece of designer paper from the gorgeous Joy of Christmas designer Paper, by drawing lines onto my stamp, but as it didn't work terribly well, my eye spied my bleach and voila:

I think it's a kind of fun way to create a different effect, all I've done is used a paint brush and bleach.  Stamp the saying first then add the bleach dotted around, I think the above card looks like someone's thrown snowballs at it!  To see what I've used click here: What Heather Used

Then I may have got a bit carried away, and couldn't resist creating way more with the gorgeous paper, and trying out what the bleach looked like with the different colours.

Then as I'd decided to use blue, I then had to find different designer paper for it, so, go the Winter Meadow designer Paper (so pretty!)

If you missed the video here it is:

I hope this inspires you to dig out the bleach and create.

God Bless love
