The technique I used for this card is the “Baby Wipes” technique. “An oldie but a goodie”. This works best with a solid stamp image like these leaves. All these images are from the Colorful Seasons stamp set (#p143726).
Firstly I stamped the sentiment using Soft Suede ink (#147115), then I stamped the outline of the leaves also with Soft Suede. Now to the Baby Wipes technique. Fold a baby wipe in half or quarters, and place on a plate or other flat surface. Add small amounts of Stampin’ Ink Refill randomly on the baby wipe. The ink will gradually spead, so if there are small gaps it won’t be a problem. I used Pear Pizzaz refill (#131160), Grapefruit Grove (#147181), Pineapple Punch (#147180) and So Saffron (#105225). When I inked each image I moved the stamp to a different area so the colours on the leaves were all in different places. Below is what the baby wipe looked like with the ink added.
The base card is Crushed Curry (#131288) and the cardfront is Very Vanilla (#106550). This is an easy technique but very effective. You will be able to make multiple cards with this.
Enjoy your weekend.
