Autumnal trendy trees using the baby wipe technique for the MojoMonday challenge

Even though I'm back studying again this week, I've managed to squeeze in some time for the MojoMonday challenge. Here's this week's sketch:

For this one, I decided to get my reinkers out for a play and combined them with the Trendy Trees (check out the discount offer here).

Recipe

Stamp set: Trendy Trees

Cardstock: So Saffron, Soft Suede, Ruby Red, Whisper White

Ink: Soft Suede

Reinkers: Ruby Red, Pumpkin Pie, So Saffron

Punch: Word Window

Polka Dot Grosgrain Ribbon: Soft Suede

Other: Brads (Earth Elements), Designer Button (Playground), Linen Thread

The tree trunks were stamped onto Whisper White card with Soft Suede. I dripped 2-3 drops of each reinker onto a couple of folded baby wipes to create my own mini ink pad and stamped the tree tops using my stamp-a-ma-jig to get the alignment right. The same mini ink pad was used to stamp the sentiment which was then punched out with the Word Window. I used the button and linen thread tied around folded ribbon to create a "bow". The brads were added using the mat pack to get even spacing. All the rest is matting and layering.

I made good use of the multi-coloured "ink pad", so you might see a few more variations on this card over the next few days. Right now though, I'm planning a Christmas card for the next post.

Please stop by again soon.
