Using some Gina K. Designs Red Velvet card stock and Versamark I stamped the daisy and the butterfly. I added Gina K. Designs fine detail black embossing powder and heat set them. Next I took plain old Clorox bleach and removed the color from the card stock. I used a water brush but I just dipped it in the bleach. After it had dried I then took and added just a smidge of color back in with my Zig Watercolor markers. I die cut the design with Gina K. Designs Small oval die and then layered it onto a black layer die cut with Gina's large oval die. When they were placed together it made a narrow black border around the design. I added a few black gems too. Pretty simple card but I do love the way it looks.
Have a great evening. Your visits and comments sure make me happy.
God bless,
Verna

Beautiful card, Verna! Will definitely have to give this technique a try!
Beautiful job with the bleach, Verna! I watched the video and remembered that I did this technique many years ago, when I first started stamping, but I haven't tried it since. Nicely done!
What a great technique with a beautiful outcome! The background paper is gorgeous too!
The bleaching looks really wonderful in that color card stock and with those stamps. Great job with the challenge!
I love this so much. Your colors are so cool, and your design is perfect for the challenge. You make me want to play along!!
this looks lovely, and I love how you used that bleaching technique! Well done!
I have that same PP Verna and this gorgeous card has inspired me to go look for it! This is beautiful and such a great technique that I forgot all about!
Fun technique...turned out SO perfect. I love the gorgeous colors!
Hi, Verna! Your bright colors and pretty flowers remind me of Asian-influenced inspiration. Beautiful! Hugs, de
Another gorgeous make! Love doing that with the bleach and then going over it with another coloring medium. You've nailed it here! So cool!
Beautiful card! I like the colour you achieved with the bleaching and the Zig markers.
This is a technique that I forget about, but love how it looks. Great use of the pattern paper too. I am sure that you have as much as I do.

Gorgeous Verna and what a fabulous technique....
Beautiful card Verna, a great technique that you have mastered perfectly!! Have a great day!
You've done this bleaching technique so beautifully, and brilliant idea to add shading with the Zigs. The red bleached wonderfully and I love the hot pops of those summer red & oranges in teh background paper! TFS
Pretty card! I seldom use that technique--thanks for the reminder!
Ok... so this is gorgeous! And what a cool technique!! Gonna have to check that one out and give it a try for sure! Love this!
This is the prettiest thing, Verna! Love the bleaching technique which I haven't done in forever. The stamps and paper are super pretty, and all the color, especially the lovely, warm red is wonderful!
beautiful and so cheery....
