Remember this?
Here's how I tidied up and created FOUR cards!
Then a second panel. It was clear to me that the ink was quite fond of that baby wipe.
My solution: glue the whole thing to a half-sheet of cardstock!
After leaving it to dry overnight, I cut it into two smaller panels with
less than an inch of that baby wipe left over!
Ready to see my cards?
This sentiment [The Stamp Market- Kindness Matters] was the perfect size for one
of the SB Essential Four Petal labels.
I love that one less baby wipe is in the landfill! lol Seriously though, we need to rethink throwing those inky wipes away!

Oh so beautiful cards, Michele. The baby wipes I've used never ever looked so pretty(if you know what I mean)! I don't use them in my crafting as a general rule. These pretty colors make me wonder if I should start! Thank you for sharing. Have a lovely day.
Clever way of using a recycled item! Turned out to be a very pretty card also 😊
All four of these are absolutely beautiful Michele and I love, LOVE the colors you used!! And creative way of keeping those baby wipes out of the landfills!! Really love that embossing folder too...such a perfect one for adding the sentiment in the middle! Hugs. :0)
WOW, WOW, WOW! That baby wipe made the prettiest cards! WOW!
Clever idea and the end result looks amazing. Love them all. I just use a microfibre cloth and kitchen paper in my craft room. I am not good at using mop up ink though. Will try to change that xx
Beautiful cards from your inky leftovers. :) Great work! xx
Oh I was SO looking forward to this post and your cards and you didn't disappoint! All so beautiful, Michele! I'm tempted to get inky and do some "mopping" on purpose!
Wow, beautiful cards from that baby wipe. Definitely worth rethinking. Will have to give it a try. Thanks for sharing these.
Awesome! While the barely inked panels are pretty, those glued on wipes really took your cards up a few beautiful notches!
waste not, want not. I'm not quite sure what that means exactly but you certainly didn't waste a thing making these fab cards! What a great idea to use that baby wipe!!
I don't use baby wipes but I did do this with a paper towel mop up one time. The cards all turned fantastic, Michele. Nice to get four done at once.
I'm still not quite sure what happened to the baby wipe here but the end result us fabulous.....!
