I can’t let the fall season go by without creating a few cards using the baby wipe technique. Although this technique can be used for any season or occasion, it’s really perfect for fall.
To try this technique, layer a couple of baby wipes on a protected surface such as a glass mat, silicone mat, or wax paper. Using Stampin’ Up!’s ink refills, drop dots of the ink onto the baby wipe. Be sure to cover a surface large enough for your stamps. For today’s cards, I used Cherry Cobbler, Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie, and Garden Green. (In some versions, I’ve substituted Old Olive._ These colors really say “fall.”
Then, use the inked baby wipe as a stamp pad. Place your stamp in the ink and then stamp on a piece of card stock.
