July Club Projects
My downline, Shelly, showed us the Baby Wipe Technique during our May club meeting (Thank you Shelly). It was awesome, so I just had to try it and used it for a demo at this month's meeting.
Here are the cards I demoed
Stamp Set: Curvy Verses (114948, page 155)
Card Stock: Old Olive, Whisper White, Glossy White (102599, page 170)
Ink: Melon Mambo, Old Olive

I saw this card on Stamper's Connection ( a demo only website for sharing projects). This uses the baby wipe technique to make a "plaid" background. I want to thank Denise Kasanda for the inspiration. After making my plaid background, I used it to make this card.
Stamp Set: Well-Scripted (from the Occasions Mini Catalog)
Card Stock: Whisper White, Old Olive, Glossy White Baby Wiped
Ink: Melon Mambo
Embellishments: Old Olive Satin 5/8” ribbon (117292, page 191)
Punch: Wide Oval (119849, page 202)
Big Shot: Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder (120175, page 214)
You will need reinkers in the colors you are going for. Here I used Melon Mambo and Old Olive.
1 Baby Wipe folded (I used a cheap paper plate to save on some of the mess!!)
Add your colors to the baby wipe – I added Melon Mambo first and then Old Olive
Now swipe your “ink pad” over the Glossy White Cardstock
Now swipe vertically
It just takes a couple of minutes to dry and you are ready to add it to you card
I then punched out the flowers with the 5-Petal Flower Punch and mounted them on the card above. I also ran a piece through the Big Shot and made the backing for my sentiment using the Lots of Tags Sizzlet (114508, page 211)
I used the left-over half to make a card front – ran it through the Big Shot using the new Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder (120175, page 214)
Tomorrow I will share how to use your baby wipe as an ink pad!!
