Fall Colorful Tree with Baby Wipe Technique

It is now officially fall and I sure wish turning a page on the calendar meant an automatic change in the weather.  I'm ready for it to feel like fall.  I'm ready to see trees changing color as I look out my window.  I'm ready for reds, oranges, browns with some green thrown in.  If I can't have it happening in nature right outside my door, I'll just have to settle for fall in my creative mind and the cards I'm making right now.

It's been awhile since I've used the baby wipe technique, but that seemed perfect to create fall colors of the FabFri challenge on my fall tree.  I'd also never tried using the baby wipe technique with the Stamparatus.  It worked out amazingly well.  I was able to ink up the tree trunk with a Soft Suede ink pad and then color the leaves with the baby wipe that I had inked up with the colors from FabFri172.    It also gives you the chance to re-ink and re-stamp your image if it needs more color.  The Stamparatus made the baby wipe technique even easier and allows you to add more color until it is the richness you desire.

Make sure you head over to CTS #340 and FabFri172 to see the inspiration cards by the design teams and other creative entries.
