I think it's a bit hard to see what I did. My first attempt was not good, I think this works best with darker cs.
I'm not happy with my photo but it's the best I could do. The teal irl is quite a bit darker and the lime ep looks wonderful on it. I love this color combo and should use it more. I bleached out the insides of the squares. It took a few applications before I was happy. I really liked the lighter green I got from the bleach so I only colored a little bit with some metallic colored pencils. The pencils are quite soft, almost crayon like and you can blend them pretty well. I did leave a little area uncolored in each square. Fun challenges today!

Wow, Jean! What a great design and an awesome challenge combo! I did think the EP was gold, but that didn't take away from the fabulousness of the card. Love it!

luv your image and how you bleached out the squares. I hear you about cameras not showing true colours - that happens to me all the time too! the embossing looks like gold on my comp. but it's very beautiful. it would be amazing to see what the green would look like. cool card!!
