A big congrats to Denise, the newest Featured Stamper! She has a lovely little gallery & I chose THIS to case. I love the vibrant blue so I kept I kept that & most of the layout. I used different images, turned it horizontal & moved the greeting.
This is also for the Ways to Use It Challenge (WT67, to use bleach. I actually love using bleach on card stock...w/ all the different brands & colors, you never know exactly what you'll get. For this, I stamped the southwest pot image w/ bleach onto the cobalt blue c/s. I was pleasantly surprised to see it turned a lovely turquoise color when bleached. The strip on the side was simply sprayed w/ bleach. After fussy cutting the pot, I used a lg bg die to emboss the turquoise panels then added a double stitched circle frame & some sequins & strips of paper for grasses.
Just for grins, I spritzed a bunch of colors w/ bleach to see what colors they'd turn. Please ck out the link to my blog if you'd like to see the results.
Congrats again, Denise! Thanks so much for looking.Closeups, the inside & my bleach experiments are on my blog: The Write Stuff

The bleach has made such a beautiful pot...it reminds me vividly of some beautiful pottery we have seen in Greece with just those vibrant blues. Alas, we've learnt through experience that some of it chips very easily so it's not a good buy. The piece spritzed with bleach looks fab too. What a wonderful symphony in blues.
