Bleaching

Yay! My Welcome Sign won a challenge category for Best Use of Bleaching Technique. 'WELCOME' was stamped with Castaway Stamp pad, then ironed to start the bleaching effect. Scroll stamp on either ends was stamped using regular household bleach. When using bleach or bleaching stamp pads, remember to use on un-coated cardstock and paper, and clean your stamps right away so the bleach does not damage them. A really neat effect with stamping. Other eays to use bleach: doodle with a Q-tip dipped in bleach, spray bleach onto cardstock, dab bleach on a tissue and then onto paper. Once the bleach dries completely the chemical process is over and the end product is safe to use in your scrapbook.
