Today I have a card featuring several products from the Come to Gather Suite: Gathered Leaves Dies, Gather Together stamp set and Come to Gather Designer Series Paper. To see all the products in this suite, click here.
Wow, I really love the Gathered Leaves Dies! As I mentioned last week, to really make the leaves POP, I spritzed the cardstock with a small amount of water before cutting the leaves out. It really makes a big difference when you do this step!
This Designer Series Paper coordinates beautifully with Pretty Peacock and Mint Macaron cardstock. I used these two color for the leaves as well as the base and first layer of the card. My sentiment was stamped with Pretty Peacock ink and cut out with the Stitched Nested Labels Dies. The Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels add the finishing touch. If you’d like to make today’s card, you’ll find the measurements below the supply list.

I had such a positive response to my card using the Baby Wipe Technique that I decided to make another one! If you missed yesterday’s post using this technique, which also includes a video, click here.
To create the leaves on today’s card I used two ink refill colors, Merry Merlot and Crushed Curry along with the stamp set, Colorful Seasons. This technique uses several folded baby wipes with drops of your favorite ink which then becomes your stamp pad. It’s really fun and once you get started, you can’t stop!
After making the first card, above, I decided to make another one while my “stamp pad” was juicy. The second one is more muted but still so pretty!
I used the stamp set, Free as a Bird, for the sentiment with Merry Merlot ink. I wanted a small sentiment because I didn’t want to cover the beautiful leaves! The sentiment on the first card was placed up near the top to cover a leaf that didn’t get completed stamped. I didn’t want to waste my masterpiece so did the next best thing – I covered it up!
Here’s a side by side comparison of the two cards.
I hope you give this technique a try!

Today’s card was made using the Baby Wipe Technique (I also have a video). This technique is super easy and lots of fun! You’ll need baby wipes and our ink refills (I also refer to them as reinkers in the video). I used Pumpkin Pie, Cajun Craze and Crushed Curry.
The leaf stamp is from Colorful Seasons and because I needed a small sentiment, I used the To Every Season stamp set. The base of the card is Pumpkin Pie with another layer of Cajun Craze.
To cut out the sentiment, I used these punches (click the images in the supply list below for more information about the punches):
Sentiment: 1″ Circle Punch
Pumpkin Pie layer: 1-1/8″ Scallop Circle Punch
Cajun Craze layer: 1-3/8″ Scallop Circle Punch
Give this technique a try! I think you’ll really enjoy it!
