 CAS894 = Keep in Touch

The bleach was still on my desk from a card I made last week so I decided to play with it a bit more. I masked a rectangle on a piece of white cs and sponged two shades of Distress ink in the rectangle. Then laid my Memory Box delphinium stencil over it and gently sponged with bleach to lift the colour. It seeped under the stencil a bit - if you look closely you can see how it weirdly caused the ink colour to pool around the openings in the stencil and I lost a lot of the definition. I added a bit of subtle splatter with black ink. I removed the masking tape and stamped the lavender silhouette over it and added a vertical sentiment and a bit more splatter with white acrylic paint. Then trimmed with a stitched rectangle and popped it up on fun foam on the card base.

This turned so beautifully. Love that you pulled out the bleach to help create the lovely sky.

The soft blend of Distress inks creates such a gentle glow behind the stencil work, and the way the bleach lifted and pooled gives the panel an organic, almost watercolor texture that adds so much character. The lavender silhouette anchors everything beautifully, and the vertical sentiment draws the eye right through the design. The splatter details add just the right touch of movement, and the stitched rectangle frame finishes it with such clean precision.
