Baby Wipe Stamping Tips:

  • it’s important to clean stamp between inkings
  • stamp in the same area with each inking.  This helps to keep your “ink pad” from getting muddy
  • press and hold the stamp on the card stock a little longer than normal
  • solid images work best
  • try adding the reinkers in different design patterns (lines or dots) it’s best to leave a small space in between colors

Use the stitched rectangle dies to create a frame with the cork paper.  The center photo showcases a piece of basic white card stock cut out with the smaller rectangle die used with the cork paper.  It fits perfectly inside the cork paper to create an inlay.  Simply add some die cut leaves from Intricate Leaves dies.  The slice of wood from the gorgeous leaves creates a cool background for this card.

The splatter stamp in the set makes a cool background, kind of like your own designer paper in the left photo.  In the right photo, no two leaves are alike.  The beauty of the pattern made with the ink refills.  Give this baby wipe technique with the gorgeous leaves stamp set a try and create some quick and easy cards.
