Baby Wipe Technique Using Merry Merlot & Crushed Curry
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!
