It's that time of year again!


So here is a very easy but messy project for a graduation card. It is bleached with oxy clean. You will need a brayer, paper towels, newspaper, oxy clean, embossing powder, heat tool, versa mark and card stock. I chose Bravo Burgundy and More Mustard for this card because of the receipiants school colors.

Step 1
Over whisper white card stock, cover entire area with your choice of a color. This works best with a dark color.

Step 2
Place colored paper over a piece of newspaper and sprinkle with oxy clean. Spray with water and let absorb for 30 seconds. Wipe off the oxy clean and you will have the bleached effect seen above. Let Dry. This takes awhile, so if you have another project to work on this would be a good time.

Step 3
Using the versa mark stamp on the the cardstock that matches the oxy clean piece using the Class of Stamp and 07 or whatever year you are making the card for. Sprinkle your choice of embossing color and heat.

Step 4
Cut out using 1 1/4 inch square punch around the Class of stamp and using a scissors cut out the 07. The other color should be cut out as a background with the 1 3/8 inch square punch. Glue the 07 to the other cardstock and cut around.

Step 5
Once the oxy clean cardstock is dry, stamp graduation images all over using the same color of ink you brayed on. Adhere the cut out pieces.

Stamp sets used for this card is Tassle Time and fun numbers.
