When somebody gets a pen and writes on a card, the ink gets absorbed into the deeper layers. If you soak it, the water will not be able to reach these layers. It's amazing how this person managed to clean it up so well. I mean, this card was soaked in some chemical solution and you can tell just by looking at the borders, but again, I don't think soaking alone can clean the card up so well. Other steps were definitely taken to take off those pen marks.

Oh, and how do you think this card will look like in the future? I bet the paper is going to one day turn all brittle and crack, crack, crack.
