Some more cards with bleach - just for fun...

Here are some more cards I played around with today using the bleaching technique from Make it Monday: HERE...not sure if I like them but thought I would post a pic just for fun....

 The first card I did (featured in my last post) is at the top.  The three I played around with after that one are below and to the sides.
I think out of all of them this is my favorite - though it still needs some help before I would want to mail it out.  I like the way the clouds look with the bleach and second generation over stamping on some of them.  I think the balloons look artistic in real life (I colored over the bleach with copics) but it doesn't translate well in the photo.  I think the round part of the sun in the upper right needs something...haven't decided what yet - maybe some copic marker coloring?.

 I overstamped the bleached animals slightly offset but you can't tell with this light cardstock - darker colors do work better.
This one I totally just played with.  It has an artsy feel in real life.  Again the bleachy/artistic look doesn't translate well in the photos...

Anyway....I hear my niece arriving upstairs with my dear son.  They just returned from a swim session at Grandma's so my play time is at a close.  I had a horrible migraine last night and most of today and my niece came and got Tim at noon to take him swimming and visiting at my parents house.   Anyway I am off to spend some quality time with my sweet little one.  Hope you are all enjoying your weekend! Thanks for looking at my playful bleached cards!  I sure had fun "messing" around this afternoon...you should see my messy craft space!  Ugh!  Time to pick up!
