There'll be instructions with the dye, or you could ask where you buy it from, or find instructions pretty easily on the net. There's not a lot to it other than having the right materials and adding them in the right order. You can either use a cold water dye, or (preferably) a hot water: a hot water dye can be done with an old pot on the stove.

Yeah, I have been thinking about that. I don't think you're going to have a lot of options. You've got the base pink to deal with, so it can't change too drastically, and if you go too dark the print won't be visible. Red would probably be the easiest, purple should work. You might be able to get a near-blue (likely to be at least a bit purple). Brown is probably an option.

I haven't tested what bleach would do to a print like that (really should test it actually...), but I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't end well.
