I wanted the bleached highlighting to radiate out from the rose in all four directions. I stamped the rose on a scrap sheet of paper and drew a vertical and horizontal line through the sample image. Then I placed the green card stock where it would line up and moved it over the lines just a bit (up and to the left) and stamped in bleach. I repeated with the other colors, one at a time, moving each over the lines before bleaching. I lined everything back up, stamped the rose in VersaMark and embossed with hematite embossing powder. I hope this makes sense. The edges are sponged with ruby red.

Gorgeous card. I saw the outline around the images too but didn't think to bleach for the shading. I paper pierced instead but love yours better than mine
