I wanted a special card for my BIL 70th birthday. He is very active and loves the outdoors. I used the baby wipe technique. Because I do not have reinkers I just dabbed the corner of wipe onto the corner of each ink pad. Worked great! Happy Birthday Hal!

Nancy, this is very pretty! This is a different baby wipe technique than I have done. Is this the swiping version, do you put reinkers on the wipe and then swipe it across the cardstock? That is how it looks to me....
Nancy, your card is so pretty! The trees look so good with this background technique. I'm truly honored that I was someone's inspiration, because I get so much from this website. The talent here amazes me.
