Hello,
Today I am going to share a card that I received from one of my friends. I may make this a regular feature. We will see.
This card was created by my friend Jeannie. She used a variety of punches and created a beautiful fall card.
The background was dry embossed with a woodgrain embossing folder (possibly Stampin' Up!s). The Decorative Labels punch and the oval punch (retired) are from Stampin' Up!
Thank you Jeannie for this beautiful fall card.
Have a blessed day,
Trude
Hello,
Today I am going to share with you the wet wipe technique (also known as the baby wipe technique).
It is easy to do and adds another technique to your list of accomplishments!
I think this technique is a good one to learn because on certain stamps it can save a LOT of time. Last year I used it on a Christmas wreath stamp. Once you have the wet wipe inked up it is ready to do a bunch of cards before you need to reink it, so you can stamp a stack quickly.
Here's how:
Choose three or four reinkers. Here I am doing a fall card so I chose Delightful Dijon, Pumpkin Pie, Cajun Craze and Pear Pizzazz.
Put the wet wipe on a plate and dot the wet wipe with reinkers randomly until you have an area inked that is the size of the stamp you will be using.
Ink up your stamp with the ink that is on the wet wipe. For this stamp I inked it and stamped it three times varying the angle of the stamp slightly each time.
Now, create your card!
The stamp set that I used for this card was Sheltering Tree. I also used the pumpkin thinlit that came with Square Pillow Box thinlits die set.
Thanks for stopping by!
Have a blessed day,
Trude
Have you checked out the Paper Players Challenge this week? It is about LEAVES, so I entered this card.
The Stampin' Up! Wetlands stamp set is a great stamp set to create fall cards and masculine cards with.
Check out other wildlife cards on this weeks Paper Players weekly challenge.
I really like finding ways to use the birch paper that came in the Thanksgiving tablescape kit. Doesn't it look great with the goose stamp?
Other products I used:
