BABY WIPE STAMPING

Ashley is up this week and her video demonstrates how to use baby wipes and re-inkers as a stamp pad. 

Okay, so I used a Rosie Posie stamp and die cut for this Baby Wipe Technique.  The flower is kinda tie die looking with the re-inkers, I inked the Step 2 part with solid color to define the image a bit more.  The Beautiful Butterfly image is a mistake :-o  
There was no way I was tossing the card as the butterfly was the last addition....and, think maybe I created a new (well, to me) technique :-)

I inadvertently inked the back of the butterfly into the baby wipe and ended up with a blob of colors
*  Turned the butterfly to the right side and inked it in solid blue 
*  Stamped over the blob

  3. Such a pretty card. I love the colors you used. Great job on hiding your oops. (this is one reason I hate one layer cards. I get to the end and always mess them up!!)

  6. Way to "save" your card Helen, using the Butterfly stamp two ways! Rosie Posie is a great stamp set to use for this technique. Nice work!

  9. Two great minds think alike! I used Rosie Posie also, I was skyping with my friend (Linda, the one who commented just before me...and she said, "Oh Helen used Rosie Posie" also...now I did not use a butterfly, but chances are I would do the same thing you did...I have done it before! Great save by the way! Lovely card!

  10. This is really pretty, and I am laughing about your oops with the butterfly. It really looks like it should be there, so I'd say you recovered pretty well. I'm going to have to remember your tip next time I make an oops that is too big to be hidden by a sequin. This technique really adds such interest to the stamped image.
