[@lindaroberts5898]

Very neat technique. Thanks

[@TxStampinSharon]

Linda, I am so glad you enjoyed this idea!

[@deniseward6207]

At first, I didn't think I'd like this technique, but I really like the results! The use of the marker gave even better results than the bleach, and I really like the added control it allowed. The white embossing really popped on the design, but it made wonder how copper (your fave!) would look. Would it blend in too much or add an even stronger vintage feel?

[@TxStampinSharon]

Oh My! I didn't try Copper! I guess I stuck with White emboss because of the chalk marker! You have inspired me to do something different! Take care Denise!

[@marybethravenscroft5620]

Love this sepia look! I do not like to work with bleach, so the chalk marker is the perfect solution, Sharon. Thanks for sharing this technique with us!

[@TxStampinSharon]

You are so welcome! I am glad the bleach didn't work as planned and I tried the chalk marker!

[@teeree55]

That is really beautiful, Sharon!

The bleach is very cool.

Fun Technique!

[@cassfonnesbeck8057]

Love this look! I really liked your mistakes too, especially the blue one...that would make a great card! I enjoyed your technique and hope to try it myself!

[@TxStampinSharon]

Thanks so much! I keep looking at that blue one too! I hope you try this. I do have step by step instructions on my blog if that helps you. txstampin.com/2020/04/sepia-card-making-tutorial-how-to-guide.html

@@TxStampinSharon thank you!

[@sharonhendricks9706]

It's always fun learning a new way to do an old technique! As I watched you use the marker, I wondered if the craft white ink refill would also work, and maybe even a combination of the two, depending on how washed out of how heavy you want the white to look. Thanks, Sharon!

[@TxStampinSharon]

Oh I did not think about the craft white ink refill! This was a fun one to play with for sure! You are very welcome Sharon!

[@robintaylor7355]

Sepia sports cards can bring good money from certain players. In fact I just purchased one off of eBay and I was super curious as to what sepia is? So I found you

[@TxStampinSharon]

I had no idea that they made Sepia Sports cards! But, I am glad you found me!

[@robintaylor7355]

@@TxStampinSharon they sure do go on eBay and type in Sepia card

[@judithsigler9644]

AWESOME CARDS, Sharon! I LOVE IT!! (I’m NOT too young not to know what Sepia is!! Haha!) Sure do appreciate the tips throughout n’ the lovely results! So, so pretty! I think the hardest part is the “drying wait time”!! :-) The chalk marker sure seemed so much easier than bleach n’ aqua pen! The white embossing is really cool, too! I was amazed at the two different colors that emerged with the Water Color paper!! WOW! Do wonder if the “blue sample” would work on a soft blue card base, tho’!! Hhhhmmmm???!!! This is a “definite” must try! :-))). TFS n’ HAPPY STAMPIN’ n’ CREATIN’! Hope you are safe n’ well! Take care n’ HUGS from Madison, WI! :-)

[@TxStampinSharon]

I hope you do give it a try Judith! Super fun technique!

[@SpringRain62]

Stunning card!! What color re inker did you use? Thank you!

[@cassfonnesbeck8057]

It was soft suede

[@TxStampinSharon]

Thank you! Yes it was Soft Suede!

[@joyallen4042]

Did I miss it or did you say,what colors did you use to make the sepia tone?

[@TxStampinSharon]

I used Soft Suede ink refill.

[@sharonhendricks9706]

Oh and I think the bleach is reacting with the pigment in the ink, but I'm not sure how that would make blue. The dark brown has yellow in the base. Hmmm.

[@TxStampinSharon]

Crazy right? I couldn't figure it out!

[@donnamccarty953]

Use a Qtip with the bleach. I love the card. Thanks. Be safe and well. God bless you

[@TxStampinSharon]

Great tip! I am glad you love the card! Thank you Donna! We are staying home. You be safe too!

[@daphnehazell2917]

Thanks shaz, lovely, i have done this but i used bleach, will have to go find my one i did about a year ago, stay safe xxxx

[@TxStampinSharon]

Sounds like you had good results with Bleach? I am glad you enjoyed my video! Stay safe and healthy!
