More Cards for Challenges with Baby Wipe Technique - PP150 & JAI #169

Hello Everyone,

This is post no. 2 today and I just can't seem to stop myself when I start playing with a technique.

Here is a card using Artistic Etchings stamp set, combined with Collage Curios

The Reinkers I've used for the Baby Wipe technique on this card were Blushing Bride, Primrose Petals, Marina mist and Rich Razzleberry.  I feel the colours in this background are closer to the colours of the Inspiration challenge at JAI.  The Challenge at the Paper Players is to add Bling and that was added to the Mosaic punched pieces on my card.

I've also used the Fancy Fan Embossing folder on my Whisper White background on this Label Framelits Easel Card.
I really love how pretty the skyline looks on this card.  We do see some beautiful shades in the sky during sunset.  I don't know if Paris is the same, however using my imagination.  Best wishes was stamped in the Baby wipe used as a Stamp Pad after I'd done the wiping technique, to produce multicoloured lettering.

I'm going to enter into 2 challenges

JAI 169 Inspiration challenge

But wait, there is more.  I couldn't decide which card I liked the best, so here is another one made with the same technique and Elements of Style stamp set combined with Papillon Potpourri.

On this card I've used the Label framelits horizontally as a topper on a square white Easel card base.  I've also used Curly Cute greeting in an effort to be using my retiring stamp sets.  My Black Label was embossed with Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder.  Once again, I've stamped some butterflies using the wipe as an inkpad to achieve the multicolours.


So which one do you like the best.  Please let me know while visiting.  Would love to have your opinion.  Enjoy your day!

    You are definitely on a roll with these cards this week Carolyn. I like both of them but would say my favourite one is the Paris one, and I like your element that you created to hold up the easel. Thanks for joining in again with our challenge.

Hello Everyone, Welcome to our Wednesday card sketch challenge at the Paper Craft Crew.  Here's our sketch this week    I'm using some designer papers called Merry Moments combined with Festival of Trees stamp and greeting from Teeny Tiny Sentiments.  The cardstock used is Whisper White and Smoky Slate with inks of Old Olive and Real Red.  The greeting comes from the Teeny Tiny Sentiments stamp set and has been punched out with the Washi Tape punch. Here's a closer look.  I love how the Designer papers add so much colour this this card.  The Festival of trees stamp has been combined with the Tree punch for this card. Thanks so much for joining me this week to view my card.  For more inspiration please visit the Paper Craft Crew challenge and see what our other Designers have created this week. Have a great day.

Music Teacher Farewell // Paper Players #173 Shaped Card Challenge

Image
Hello Everyone, It's a sad week for my daughter and her friends who have really enjoyed what the music program offered them at the High School this year.  Their very talented teacher will be moving on to a new school and they're having a little party for their last day of the Vocal ensemble practice which was an extra activity that he undertook with the students, as well as teaching them to play all sorts of instruments in lesson times. His speciality though, Guitar!  I have decided to enter this card into the Paper Players Shaped Card Challenge this week.  While not specifically made for the challenge, I think it's a pretty cool shape and fits the criteria.  I also think more people deserve to see this card. When asked to make a card for the group to give him, with that in mind I found some inspiration on Pinterest and came up with this card. The hardest part for me was getting the shaping right, and I had to call on my Artistic daughter to draw the edge...

Just Add Ink 184 - Just Add Bows

Hi Everyone, How are we this Friday?  I'm good, been to the Dentist this morning for my regular check.  The good news is today was relatively painless, the bad news is I have to go back for some fillings.  Yuck! There's a great challenge at Just Add Ink this week brought to us by Trish to Just Add Bows.  The paper variety are so popular at the moment so that's what I'm making today. I've used my Extra Large oval punch with some of the gorgeous Winter Frost Designer Series Paper pack.  This is one of the foil sheets from the pack for my bow.  I've kept this card simple and elegant making a square card, so that it looks like a gift. Here is a closeup of that bow. I've used Bermuda Bay and Whisper White cardstock today with the Winter Frost paper pack.  I really like the colour combinations in these papers.  You can pack these cards quite quickly and they look so effective. Thanks for stopping by today to view my card.  P...
