Baby Wipe Stamping Technique Greeting Card

Today I used a technique using a baby wipe that I put drops of reinker on.  I used Daffodil Delight, Pear Pizazz, Baja Breeze and Pretty in Pink.  Usually this technique allows the inked baby wipe to be used as a stamp pad, and you would use a solid shaped stamp.  I really liked the design the reinkers made, so I just placed my sheet of paper on top of the baby wipe and pressed it down to create the background.


The base of the card is Baja Breeze.   I used Vintage Labels to stamp the sentiment in Pear Pizazz.


 I used a border punch for the looped edges, and a BossKut die for the scroll.


I used Pretty in Pink 1/4" ribbon, and pearl for accents.


 Here is a close up of the pearls on the scroll.


 I've shown you in the past how to use punches to make a border for a larger image.  The Happy Birthday image above was calling for a scallop border around it, but of course there isn't one the correct size in my stash, so I used the circle scallop punch and make one myself!
 

Thanks for stopping by!
