I’ve been stamping for nearly 25 years now, and back in “the old days” when I didn’t have a stamp pad in the color I wanted, I made my own using baby wipes and drops of ink. We recently revisited this technique in class and it was fun to see other stampers marvel at the possibilities!

Here’s our technique book entry and samples we stamped…

It really is just as easy as it sounds. The little tip at the end of the directions is great if you don’t want ink all over your hands. Don’t ask me how I know that. 😉

Once we had the technique mastered, we made this card. I think it’s a great mix of simple and masculine.

When is the last time you used baby wipes? Maybe it’s time to give this technique a try!
