There's still time to join in at
CAS Mix Up!
I'm hosting the challenge this month and this is what I chose....
There are a lot of ways to use baby wipes on cards.
We keep discovering new ones.
I used this technique from Kia's video tutorial.
I LOVE this technique. It's like magic when you wipe it down.
I did learn that some photo paper doesn't work well,
but this HP worked like a dream!
I smooshed Distress Oxide on my craft sheet, spritzed with water and
dipped the glossy photo paper into the ink.
I used several colors, drying between each color, until I was
happy with the coverage.
When the paper was colored and dry, I stamped the image,
using the MISTI so I could stamp more than once if needed.
I let that dry REAL good and wiped it down with a baby wipe
and watched the magic happen.
I've used a die to emboss the edge and put the design image on foam.
My mixed media are Baby Wipe Technique, Stamping and Dry Embossing with a Die.
I hope you'll try this or another of the baby wipe techniques.
There are video tutorials at CAS Mix Up.

I love the vibrant gorgeous colours and the flower stamp AND you have just layered it and not framed it, it can certainly stand on its own merits.
I keep saying I am going to buy inks then can't decide which to buy, when I see so many gorgeous cards by you and others.

This is STUNNING, my friend. Looking forward to seeing it in real life and to have you here to show all of us how you made it! xx
Oh my, this is outstanding. Those lovely tulips really look terrific against that background. I love the colors you chose. I finished my card from your tips yesterday. I need to practice but I get how it's done. Have a wonderful time.
Astonishing! I am so grateful that you made me discover this amazing technique. It has endless possibilities. This colourful card has a beautiful energy to it with those spring tulips. Just the right recipe for this time of year. Truly a beauty! xx
Those purple tulips look wonderful against your gorgouse baby wipe background, Bonnie! I LOVE the colors you used and the way they were smooshed. It looks dreamy. The frame impression is subtle and gives a finished look.
Thanks so much for hosting this fun "magic" challenge this month. I sure enjoyed it!
