🌿Baby Wipe Technique Class – Create Masculine Cards with the Nature’s Symphony Bundle! 🌿
March 23-27, 2026!
Class Fee - $40

I am so excited to invite you to my upcoming Baby Wipe Technique Online Class where we’ll be creating 5 masculine handmade cards using the stunning Nature’s Symphony Bundle from Stampin’ Up! If you would like to use another bundle, look for one with solid leaf & branch images & dies.

We will be exploring 5 different ways to use Baby Wipes in your card making. If you’ve never tried Baby Wipe Techniques before — you are going to LOVE it this class!


🎨 What is the Baby Wipe Technique?

The Baby Wipe Technique is a fun and surprisingly simple way to create custom multi-colored images with reinkers and baby wipes. The result? Gorgeous, organic images and patterns that are perfect for nature-inspired designs.

In this class, I’ll show you step-by-step how to:

✨ Create your own custom ink pad

✨ Blend multiple colors beautifully

✨ Create water-color style backgrounds

✨ Design clean, layered masculine cards

It’s creative, a little messy (in the best way 😉), and SO satisfying!

 

Please use the Google Form https://forms.gle/PiLzpggExRziyuos7 to sign up for this class 

Please see the list below of the product you will need to have to create these cards.  

 


📦 What’s Included

 When you register, you will receive a class kit from me that will include the below supplies:

*Please note that I reserve the right to switch products based on availability. Substituted products will be of similar value and keep the integrity of the design.

It does not include the two Coordinating Embellishments. You will have enough of these items leftover from the full kit to make more cards.

The Perfect Way to End Paper Pumpkin Week 🌷 | Paper Pumpkin Alternative for January 2026 Special Delivery Kit

Welcome back to Paper Pumpkin Week here on Creative Chelsey!

Today I’m sharing my final alternative card design created with the January 2026 Paper Pumpkin Kit called Special Delivery.


This card felt like the perfect way to end the week—soft, elegant, and full of spring vibes. I paired the kit elements with die cut tulips from the Beautiful Blooms Dies to create a layered focal point that feels fresh and timeless.

The tulips add beautiful dimension and movement while still blending seamlessly with the Special Delivery kit colors and patterns.

This Die Cutting Trick Changes Everything! | Paper Pumpkin Alternative for January 2026 Special Delivery Kit

Welcome back to Paper Pumpkin Week here on Creative Chelsey!

Today I’m excited to share my eighth alternative card design created with the January 2026 Paper Pumpkin Kit called Special Delivery.


This card is extra special because it features a partial die cutting technique—one of my favorite ways to stretch your dies and create custom shapes that perfectly fit your design.

Instead of using the Large Rectangle Postage Die at its full size, I used partial die cutting to create a smaller square shape for the sentiment—perfect for this collage-style layout.

If you recreate this card, be sure to tag me @creativechelsey or use #creativechelsey so I can see your version!

Below you’ll find the full step-by-step tutorial, measurements, and supplies so you can create along with me.

Card Assembly Instructions

1. Cardbase

Stamp with Bubble Bath ink random images from the kit. I used the Air Mail & Tiny Hearts on the Solid Pink Cardbase piece.

Add the Pink Plaid Cardbase strip to the left edge.

Splatter with Poppy Parade ink. I used the Dark Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blend Marker.



2. Add the Envelope Pieces

Add the larger Pink Plaid Envelope square to the bottom left area with the white address in the center of the card (so it can be covered by the other pieces).

Add the Blue Plaid Envelope square to the right. Cover the white address area.

Add the Green Plaid Envelope square to the top of the other two.



3. Stamp Details

On the Green Plaid piece stamp the Cancelled Postage image in Mossy Meadow ink.

On the Blue Plaid piece stamp the Row of Tiny Hearts in Blueberry Bushel ink.

On the Pink Plaid piece stamp the Love / Heart Circle in Poppy Parade ink.

Add this piece to the center of the cardbase.


4. Add the Postage Stamps

Add with dimensionals the three remaining Postage Stamp Die Cuts from the kit in a triangle shape.

Leave a space in the center for the greeting.





5. Partial Die Cutting for the Greeting

Cut from the White Cardbase the large Postage Rectangle from the Beautiful Blooms Dies.

Place the rectangle back in the die with only 4 scallops inside the die. Cut with your Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine.

Rotate the paper and add it back into the die with 4 scallops again. Cut to create a square.

Stamp your greeting in Memento Black ink inside the scallop square.


6. Finish with Embellishments

In the center of the card add adhesive.

Create a faux double-bow with 20” of White Baker’s Twine.




Add the greeting over the center of the bow with dimensionals.
