I used bleach on navy cardstock, stamped and clear heat embossed with flowers from MFT. It bleached out to a kraft-like color so I cut the panel with a stitched rectangle and mounted it on some Desert Storm cardstock. There were a couple of spots that looked irregular so I added the sequins and I'm almost sorry I did although they look better IRL. Speaking of sorry, I figured this would make a great sympathy card.
The Design Team and our guest Jenny Hall are ready to show you their navy cards so head on over to take a peek and be inspired. We'd love to see your card in our gallery.

What a lovely look the bleach gave your flowers! This is wonderful Bobby!
As beautiful as I think your card is, I'm still resisting that bleaching technique, Bobby … you know how you drip a drop of bleach onto the laundry and three months later those clothes have holes in them? I'm wondering what will happen to the card stock?
It sure is beautiful though … I may have to test it! lol

Your bleaching created such a lovely subtle look for these pretty blooms, Bobby ... there's a wonderful calm serenity about them ... perfect on a sympathy card! Hugs, Anita :)
The bleaching worked great on the navy cardstock! The shading on the petals look beautiful and the light creme color gives the card a calm and warm look!
