A Sketch in Black and Gold


I'm cutting it close today, but I've completed a handful of challenges this weekend, just in time for our week-long stay away from home.  For this CAS Colors & Sketches challenge, I chose to feature gold and black.  "Breezy Waves" is a Memory Box die, which I've used for the curved feature.  I also wanted to use the bleach technique, so I tested some black cardstock and found that it bleached to a pretty gold.  The image is "Poppy Poem" from Penny Black, which I stamped and embossed in white before bleaching with an aqua pen, and then layered with the gold cardstock I used for the curves. (There wasn't really any room for a sentiment after all that...I wish there were more vertical sentiment stamps!)
