The cheapest ink is bleach! I love the color change on this suede-it turns to mustard, so that's how I chose the mat color. After the bleach did it's job I stamped on top with the suede. I got a surprise gift last year of a scor bug and it's the perfect piercing tool, just run it down the groove of the scor pal, then I added faux stitching by connecting the dots.

Very cool effect, Diane! Thanks for the gorgeous reminder about the bleach technique. I've looked at that Hero Arts wheat stamp a few times. You are enabling me! TFS. Linda
