Thanks for visiting!! I love reading your comments!!

Love the results of this technique. Am wondering on the swallowtail, the instructions say to rub the bleach over the entire surface of the swallowtail. Do you go over all the embossed places as well? Does the embossing react with the bleach?
Thanks for your comment. You can rub the bleach right over the embossing and it will not bleach the embossing. It only bleaches the card stock. Let me know if you try it and how it turns out. 🙂
