Happy Wednesday!
It's a very steamy and humid one here in NC. Of course, it's July so that's pretty normal. I have a quick post to share. Seems like this week they're all quick posts. Can't seem to work fast enough for some of these challenges and they begin to wind down quickly!
A few specifics about my card. It began with a baby wipe. I saw Michele's post a few weeks ago she had shared about her using an inky dried baby wipe on her card. So I decided to try it. This is one of the cards as a result. I have three more panels from two baby wipes left to make a few more cards soon. I used sticky backed paper to glue my baby wipe onto cardstock. Then I die cut it from the Wavy background die by Waffle Flowers. I then adhered it to a background created from photo paper with ink of the same colors smooshed onto it that I had in my stash. I like to create my own colored cardstock with my CP Inks so that's what I cut my seashells and coral from. It does require re-inking your ink pads more often but It's cheaper than buying colored cardstock.
For Following Challenges:
Stamps: Sentiment: Seashells (Honey Bee Stamps).
Paper: Neenah 110 lb Solar White for card base; Photo paper;
Ink: It's a Girl; Oh Boy (Catherine Pooler Ink).
Extras: Seashell dies -Lovely Layers Seashells (Honey Bee Stamps); Small coral (CPDesigns); Wavy cover die (Waffle Flowers); Ink dried baby wipe.
I'm glad you stopped by my blog.
Have a great day!
Come back soon! 💖

I really like your techniques on this pretty beachy card. Michele's baby wipe technique is new to me. Very cool. Thanks for playing with us this week at Just Us Girls.
