help please! stain removal on a bag

[sweetmonkey]

Hi all

i got a lovely bag for my birthday a couple of weeks ago and noticed at lunch a pink mark on the back.

on closer inspection a pink pen has leaked in my bag.

I have used soap and water to dab down the inside of the bag and that seems to have helped, although now has a pink tinge to it (the lining is beige) and i still have a mark on the outside of the bag. it is a giraffe print in a canvasy material and im n ot sure what i can use without ruining it

any suggestions please!!!!

Wet wipes should lift it - you don't want to get it too wet which is why you shouldn't soak it but any baby wipes with alcohol (but not moisterising ones for obv reasons) should take it out

Ah thanks. im at work at mo so dont have any here. will it be ok until 6 do you think?

i just done want the stain to set

It'll be fine. It won't make much difference unless you apply heat - ie don't put your bag on the radiator!

Red pen is easier than blue to get out anyway.

ah thank you so much for your help. i'll stop panicking now
