It's ANOTHER cool thing to do with baby wipes - and YOU are going to love it!
It might remind you of "Tim's" re-inker into FAT felt {which is a TOTAL thing of beauty
and possibility - but just a skosh more of a commitment...} He suggests creating a
custom pad that is preserved in a zip lock bag for additional use, which is GREAT for
mass production, especially at Christmas time! OUR use of baby wipe, is more geared
for a smaller application... say one or two cards, maybe some background work...

Meanwhile, I combined some TOTALLY refreshing color from my
color-ific friends at the Play Date Cafe -
Just in case you're ever stumped for a quick way to meet
a super juicy color palette... Let me just put my VOTE,
for the baby wipe technique, IN, for inspiration:
If you have the ink - you have the ANSWER!
Just pick YOUR stamp!
After I used my wipe to ink my stamp,
I used the "leftover" to make some juicy background paper, by dabbing and wiping..
then, when dry, I folded my paper into this fun pleated accent at the
bottom of my card! Meow! THAT was JUICY!
