SUMMER HAPPINESS & BABY WIPES

 Today's Summer Happiness card uses a stepped-up version of the Baby Wipe Technique.

Aren't these flip-flops cute?  The Summer Happiness Bundle is a new July online exclusive.  It includes a nice variety of stamps and dies that are perfect for summer -- including these flip flops and sun.

But the real "showstopper" for this card is the background.  It was made using a stepped-up version of the Baby Wipe Technique.

Watch this "how-to-video" to see how it's done!

The "stepped-up" part of the technique just adds a quick run through the Stampin' Cut & Emboss machine with an embossing folder.  Then drag some White Craft ink (or any color) over the top of the embossing to make the design pop!

I used the Swirls of Magic Embossing Folder (EF), but you can use your favorite EF.

Make your Technique Sheet larger than your desired finished size, and when you trim it you can use the "scraps" to decorate the inside of your card.

I also created a separate technique sheet to decorate the envelope flap.
