The more Bleach you add the lighter the card stock will turn...which my sample in todays video will show .
I also did the same technique with Early Espresso card stock (Shown in photo above) the bleach on this color turned slightly less maybe I needed to add more bleach, I do love the lighter shade using the Early Espresso card stock too. Try other colors, Remember just have fun experimenting !
Until later.. Happy Stampin!
I have yet to try the bleach technique; but I am going to try it today today Dawn! Love the technique with that stamp, and I have the stamp. Yippee-ki-yay! The sample you made in the video looked like there was a rainbow effect of colors in the bleached areas; I think it was cool! Thank you Dawn, for the inspiration and your fabulous video, of course!

I have seen this bleach technique before...but never really did anything for me enough to try it. But I love it with that butterfly stamp!!!!
I am so glad you are feeling better really missed your fun videos.
Have a great day!
Jackie

Another great card Dawn. Did you use watercolor paper to do this technique?
