happy Friday everyone. Here is my card for todays challenge - use gel pens, this weeks sketch challenge and the StampinB's challenge - botanicals... I bleached out my flower, part of the bee and the hedgehogs hair. I used gel pens for my faux stitching and sparkly gel pens for the flower centers and yellow part of the bees body.
Gotta run - will be late for work... hugs..

Patricia, I dont think I've ever seen you use faux stitching! I love the mix of dps youve used here and the design works wonderfully w/all of them. I've never thought of bleaching, but it's just perfect with that image.

Love your hedgie! And how creative to use bleach to "colour" parts of your image. Fantastic card - I love this sketch!
