Hello from beautiful Vancouver.
I've used baby wipes two ways on this card.
We're doing this technique at our retreat today.
What a fun time together. It was totally worth the trip!
I swiped a baby wipe full of ink on a piece of mixed media paper for the background,
then stamped the flower using Distress ink and the MISTI.
I Die cut the butterfly from baby wiped DOX inked photo paper and
raised up on black foam.
CAS Mix Up challenge is open until the 24th.
Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.
Enjoy!

Beautiful Bonnie! Clever techniques...sounds like you are having a good time.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty. Love your pretty baby wiped butterfly and the lovely background. I know you are having a wonderful time at the retreat with your crafty friends.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty soft blend of colors the baby wipes created...with your skills, of course. Who would of thought a work horse like baby wipes could have such artistic values, too!

ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty card, Bonnie! And you used baby wipes in two different ways. Love the soft swiped effect in the background, and the vibrant colors and the shine on the butterfly.
