I said to myself "Wouldn't you just know it" when I saw this month's challenge for CAS Mix-Up.
I had just finished a bleached card for a Design Team assignment that I wouldn't be able to use here. It's a good thing I like the technique because I pulled out the bleach and made another card.
My first step is to try bleach on different cardstocks to see how they react and ended up using PTI Ripe Avocado. I stamped and clear heat embossed a wreath from Altenew's Weekend Doodles. Then I just painted the leaves with bleach, letting it sit and do its job, adding more to get the color I wanted. I cut the panel down and added the sentiment from PTI.
Thanks for dropping by.

Such a lovely result, simple and perfect. I will have to give it a go, it is ages since I have used bleach xx
I've never used bleach, yours looks terrific Bobby!
I am enjoying seeing the different results from the bleach on colored cardstock! It made a perfect wreath! Thanks so much for sharing with us at CAS Mix Up!
I really like the subtle difference with your coloured card stock, Bobby! This is such an elegant card. Thanks for sharing with us at CAS Mix Up! xx
Who knew, right? I've never used bleach in my craft room... for a card, or any other reason... you all have me curious!
Very pretty, Bobby!

Wonderful thought, Bobby, and your attempt is successful, fun and fantastic. Ditto above -- but I'm afraid to have bleach on carpet...
Calm, serene, understated and elegant, Bobby ... the bleaching worked wonderfully on your wreath! Love the colour matched sentiment ... I so often forget that (and how good it looks!). Hugs, Anita :)
What a clever idea! I've not seen bleaching done before. I'll have to give it a go!
Great card!
