Boy did the WT challenge me, for various reasons: 1) I didn't have any bleach because I only had a little in a bottle, threw it out when I moved and don't use it enough to buy more 2) tried the first two faux techniques, utter failure (and you know me, I always try to save a failure). Nothing happened when I stamped on the ai with blending solution or isopropyl and when I tried the second technique, the glossy paper cracked while ironing (twice). So I was down to the color wash faux bleach, SUCCESS!
I'm also using this week's tea party tickle, which is feathers, with the faux technique. I have lots of feather images, dies etc. so that was easy and I love the challenges, Sabrina. Thanks! Both of the IO stamps are new to me, a bonus! I will decorate the inside with feathers too.

This turned out so beautifully! I love your colour washes on the background, they really go so well with the feather image! I'm so glad you kept trying! Wonderful work!

Your perseverance paid off with this really gorgeous card. I usually don't use bleach either and only have a bottle for crafting. LOL! Shhhh don't tell hubby that is why he bought the bottle for me. Giggles!

Club Scrap do the best sentiments! That feathered stamp is amazing - it reminds me of some writing paper I bought in Liberty of London when I was living over there.
