O Christmas Tree

Photo Details

Poster: shelia

Here's my take on today's challenge to bleach it. I've never done this technique before and wanted to give it a try. The blue panel is stamped with bleach. The silver panel with Night of Navy.

This is also for yesterday's sketch challenge!!

Thanks for the fun challenge and for taking a look.

Very pretty! The bleached out snowflakes on the navy panel mirror the solid coloured ones on the silver panel. Lovely design.
