For All Things Congrats

It looks like it will be another beautiful fall day here today! Love it!!! I always dread the short, cold days of winter. However, my much neglected Infrared Sauna will get a lot of use once it starts getting cold:)

I do love the colors of fall so this card was fun to make...and to give! Yup, it's already in the hands of the recipient! I made this card for my son to give at an "I Do BBQ" for some friends who are getting married the end of this month. You should have seen the invitation! So cute!!!


This card was made using the Baby Wipe Technique. You take a Baby Wipe and put it on a disposable plate on in a disposable plastic container. Figure out what colors you want to use and put drops of re-inker randomly on the Baby Wipe. Then you use the Baby Wipe as your stamp pad. I used the Baby Wipe Technique for the leaf spray behind Congrats! and for the two back leaves in the corner. This was my first time for this technique but I will definitely be using it again...and again:)

For this card I used the following Stampin' Up! supplies:

  • Paper: Crumb Cake, Island Indigo and Very Vanilla cardstock
  • Stamp Sets: Bravo, For All Things
  • Ink: Island Indigo, Crushed Curry, Old Olive and Cajun Craze
  • Other: Hemp Twine (not SU!), Retired Button, Glue Dots
Don't forget to leave a comment on yesterday's post HERE for a chance to win a set of 4 Fall cards handmade by Moi!

Thank you for stopping by today! I will be back tomorrow for Five Things Friday:)

  1. I think that's the first time I've heard of the baby wipe technique.
