Lazy Sunday with Bee Thankful

Lazy Coloring Thanks Card Tutorial

I'm feeling a little lazy this Sunday, so I wanted to do a stamping technique that was easy and quick.  I also wanted to show off this really fun stamp, but most everything I thought to do last night was more involved than what I wanted to do.  So I slept on it....and woke up with a very colorful but simple way to make todays tutorial: baby wipes.

This is called "The Baby Wipe Technique" because you put ink from re-inkers onto a baby wipe and use the inked baby wipe as an ink pad.  Different types of baby wipes use more or less ink, and the ink will spread differently on different types too, but for the most part, you simply drop ink all over the baby wipe until you cover it.  Check it by doing a sample stamping and add more ink if you're missing any spots.  Then stamp!  What's great is this technique creates a temporary ink pad you can use multiple times, so if you want to create many of the same card, or use the same ink for multiple projects, you don't have to start over each time you stamp.  You can use up the ink and simply add more ink if it starts to run out.  Only thing to watch for is if your baby wipe starts to fall apart.  You don't want to get fibers on your stamp, so just watch for that.
