I showed a fun technique in last night’s Facebook Live – Baby Wipe Backgrounds. For this card, I used Gorgeous Grape, Blueberry Bushel, Bermuda Bay, Pool Party and Granny Apple Green. Each color was applied along the edge of a fold of a baby wipe, and then the edge was swiped across a piece of glossy cardstock.
The die cut hot air balloon is made with the retiring Up & Away thinlits. The greeting is from “Above the Clouds” – a new hot air balloon bundle that will be available in the 2019-2020 Annual Catalog.
I used three colors on this card – Seaside Spray, Balmy Blue and Sahara Sand. This time, I applied them one at a time, starting with the Balmy Blue sea. I used torn pieces of Whisper White to mask areas. I added the sand and sky after I was happy with the water.
If you would like a better look at the “Flowering Desert” card I showed at the beginning of my Live, please click here. That card was made by swiping ink pads across the background cardstock to create a similar look to this baby wipe technique.
