The CAS Mix Up Challenge for May is Baby Wipe....
Hosted by Bonnie and we have the talented Berry from Berry's Bramble
as our guest designer this month.
Video links of this fun technique can be found on the blog for further inspiration.
This is my card......
I used two shades of pinks and one green re-inker, on a baby wipe to use as my ink pad.
Stamping, masking and doodling.
I only own four re-inkers and the two pink colours are ancient....
So much so that I had to squeeze really hard and the top flew off....
Top left in the photo......
This ink pad will last me ages!!!!
I am keen now to try the other baby wipe techniques, using the video links over on the blog.
And remember don't squeeze any ancient re-inkers you have too hard......x
I am looking forward to seeing your CAS creations in the gallery...
Challenges I would love to enter......

Well, I think this is really stunning, the stamping with your baby wipe ink pad has worked so well. I love the blending of the colours and the repetition of the colours in the butterfly, lovely. I might have to buy some baby wipes just to try this technique. I haven't used them for a while now xx
Absolutely gorgeous card Mac,love the flowers?, beautifully coloured and designed, Kate x x

What a fabulous technique, I don't believe iv'e ever used baby wipes in this way.. I really have to try this! You may only own four reinker's but you've picked the cream of the crop, smashing colours to create your stunning CAS card. You really are the Queen of CAS for me. Thanks so much for sharing this. Creative Hugs Tracey xx
Sweet, sweet card Mac! Love how soft your flowers and butterfly came out but yet how the ink pad looks so dark...very pretty!! Had to chuckle at your little mishap too...think we've all used a bit too much pressure at one time or another!! :0)
One good thing from the top flying off, you got really good inking! LOL, sometimes these accidents can work to our advantage! Gorgeous flowers, Mac! I love how the colors blended!
Mac, gorgeous I love your wonderfully CAS layout and those beautiful colours. You might only have 3 colours but what a perfect mix :)
What a fantastic way to use baby wipes, Mac!! LOVE your sweet garden of pink and green! The white gel pen doodling really adds so much to these fun blooms. Great work, Mac! I have to try this technique!! So funny about the lid popping off ... I'm sure it wasn't funny as the time --- what a mess! :) xx
Oh, if the cap flew off on me, I don’t think I would have been as lucky as you. It would have been all over my desk and splattered on me no doubt. Lovely and delightful card, Mac. xx
Now that sounds like an interesting afternoon with the re-inkers! I only have black and tea stain re-inkers!
Love how you card turned out Mac. those colours work well together and the flowers and butterfly are gorgeous
Blessings

Fresh and gorgeous, Mac ... with a delicious touch of whimsy about these dreamy blooms ... love them! Your top-flying-off moment sounds a little scary ... I had visions of pink ink everywhere, but you controlled it brilliantly .. and now have a forever ink pad! Hugs, Anita :)
How pretty the stamping looks in two colors. Oh my goodness, I know I have done that squeezing and the top coming off with some of my glitter glues. Lol. It can be spectacular. Thanks for sharing that oops moment in addition to your wonderful card!
Incredible technique! I have not heard about it before, and it gives so many possibilities! Your flowers look like those from the Avatar movie. They are three-dimensional and look stunning. Another amazing card and great inspiration, Mac.
Hugs,

Wow, I love the pretty look you achieved with those few re inkers! Beautiful card, thanks for joining us at Watercooler Wednesday. I’ll remember not to squeeze!
First, I love your pretty in pink whimsically doodled design, Mac! It is so fresh and lovely for springtime! Second, omg, I can SO relate. I recently did more alcoholic ink play and one of the colors seemed to be hesitant, so I gave it a good squeeze ... Didn't you find yourself just sitting there staring at the mess for a couple seconds, amazed and willing it not to be true?! It;s definitely a "what was I thinking" moment, lol! BTW, I LOVE that sediment!! Hugs, Darnell
So pretty. I like this baby wipe technique.
Such a pretty floral card! Lovely CAS layout, beautiful colors and great sentiment. :-) Thanks for joining us at Watercooler Wednesday.
An ageless ink pad, hahaha! Sometimes I believe our fingers are eternally inked up! ...like forever!
Back to your beautiful card. I do love the softness of your blooms and the harmony to the string of flowers. The butterfly is the perfect compliment too! Another beauty dear friend xx
These are such cute flowers and your ink blended so well. What a shame about the blob of ink from the clogged bottle. I see a lot of pink and green creations in your future.
I love the pinks with the green in your pretty stylised flowers and sweet butterfly Mac, and a great sentiment too. I don't own any reinkers so not sure how I am going to tackle this one, that's if time doesn't run out on me like it usually does..lol. x
Stunning card Mac, love the beautiful colours and lovely design

Fresh & beautiful--love this, Mac!
Ha ha ha~, I know I shouldn't laugh, but just imagining the scene you described made me laugh out loud. I can totally relate that. :-)
The blend of pink and green of your flowers and the butterfly is sooo pretty, Mac! Fantastic one-layer CAS card using the baby wipe technique.
Your place is up north, but it's as springy as this card is by now.

Beautiful artsy flowers in such perfect spring colours - love the way the green overlaps the pink on the flowers. And I love the sentiment - I'm always reminding myself to do that.
This is so special. Great technique too. Happy creative week, Angela xXx
What a simple-eeeee gorgeous card M. Love the softness you achieved here and those flowers are so cute. oops with the reinker! Bet you are glad it didn't go 'everywhere'
Hi Mac, I love the blending of colours you've achieved with that baby wipe technique. Those whimsical flowers and that stylized butterfly are perfect images to show it off. Love your card. Thanks so much for joining our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week.
That just goes to show you that you don't throw anything away, right?! :) I find that sometimes I can use up old items even it it's not what they're intended for! LOL! I think your card is stunning! Love the blended colors on your design! Thank you for sharing my friend! HUGS
you achieved such a beautiful look to your flowers....gorgeous Spring like card.
I'm with you, I don't own a lot of reinkers...I want to try some of the techniques now too.
