Today's challenge is the Baby Wipe Technique!
Here is mine, pending at the moment: http://gallery.splitcoaststampers.co...0378&nocache=1
Here is how to do it:
Take a baby wipe, and fold it into quarters. Add a couple drops of reinkers of 2-3 colors to the center of the folded baby wipe. Now fold the corners backwards to make yourself a little 'handle' to hold the baby wipe. Dab, pounce, or swirl the baby wipe onto either paper or the stamp itself. You can use either glossy paper or regular cardstock. Depending on how wet the baby wipe is, you can do several quarter sheets of cardstock. Also, if your brand of wipes is very wet, your paper may curl up due to the moisture....glossy paper is less likely to curl, but will a little.
I used Tidy Tykes brand wipes...they are a little drier than most baby wipes, so I was only able to do 2 quarter sheets of cardstock before reinking. [After 6 collective years of diapers for my twins, I have a small adversion to the smell and feel of baby wipes!  But I can live with Tidy Tykes!]
I can't wait to see what all of you talented stampers create! There are lots of examples already in the gallery (search on baby wipes) for more inspiration. Have fun!

Way cool - I've been waiting for this all morning! I'm on vacation this week so I'm stampin up a storm. I like this technique and think I need to do it again! That is really the best thing about these challenges - you learn so much!
Here it is - I had to bang it out quick before I went to get my pedicure (I love vacation at home!):

Cool Cat!
I just tried this recently! But I put the reinkers on the baby wipe and then stamped on that like it was a pad...here it is:
http://gallery.splitcoaststampers.co...cat=500&page=3
All of it (background, words, cat) used the baby-wipe ink-pad. The colors are much brighter IRL... __________________

Try a wet paper towel, that's all baby wipes are anyway. I'd cut it down a little first. Don't miss out on the fun! |

I just have to say this is horribly unfair that I can't play.
I haven't seen a baby wipe in 10 years.
I will have to go out and get some just so I can play. |

I just received a swap where someone used this technique and I couldn't figure out how she did it. Thanks for posting this challenge - I came on here looking for the directions. I only wish I wasn't at work so I could play, too!!

I would have been better off scanning my fingers! LOL
I only have reinkers for the retiring colors so this was about all I could think to use.
Background is swiped with a baby wipe. Stamps were stamped on the wet baby wipe. Bow is covering up a mistake. It matches better IRL.
Pending @ 4:00 Eastern Time.

This is a baby wipe card I did way back when....... I used a little different technique. I have done this on other cards also. I just dab an edge of the wipe directly onto ink pad and use a swiping motion. Works great. Nancy

Another card. Swiped babywipe behind the tree.

Beth,
I pretty much copied your example, just used a different stamp from that set.
This is my first attempt at a challenge. Both my kids are at morning camps this week and I decided to treat myself by doing the challenges each day.

Nancy,
Thanks. I tried that link, but I got an error message. I guess when my upload is no longer pending I will try copying and pasting the URL.

I'm back after a week off stamping. I nearly had the jitters from stamp withdrawal when I got home from vacation yesterday!
Here's my contribution:

TLC20 - Rustic Baby Wipe Technique
This was so fun. I never would have thought to use baby wipes. I can't wait to demo this Thursday night for my stampin' groupies. I used metallic ink. This sort of reminds me of the polished stone technique but cleaner and less smelly without the alcohol. Thanks for the great challenge.
Here is mine:

Here's mine from my gallery, I too used the baby wipe/inked as an ink pad and pressed my stamp into the babywipe. this card was from a stamp group I attended. I will try & come up with an original this week, but life is pretty hectic here right now...

I hadn't done the wet wipes other than pressing onto the wipe with a solid stamp and transferring it to paper so this was a new technique for me.
My butterfly is what I used the technique on and in real life it looks more like marbled vellum. A very nice look!
Here is the card. |

Well I did manage to combine TLC20 with CC18 by using old color re-inkers on the baby wipe and new color cardstock (bet you can't even tell). Here it is:

Baby Wipes
This was a cool challenge. I had never heard of this technique before, I always thought this was the polished stone.

Ok I love all the creativity this brought out. I love the idea of using the babywipe on your stamp pad. Going back to try it.

I have never done this technique before. It was kinda fun. Once I had the background done, though, it refused to cooperate with any of my ideas. So I finally combined it with this week's sketch challenge, and this is what I came up with. I like how it turned out, but it's missing something....

Baby Wipe Backgrounds
Ok so when I decided to try the baby wipe background I went a little bit crazy. I just wanted to see what I could come up with using different colors. Then after I had all those pieces I had to stamp stuff to go with them. I couldn't figure out how to put more than one link on here so I will just put my gallery link..just in case you want to see them.
