There is nothing better than an ice cold treat when the sun is shining, especially today…. a public holiday in Melbourne!!!

I love how the framelits cut inside the stamped image, so as not to leave a white border around the edges of the ice treats.

And here is another card with an ice cream using the same colour combination!

I love how quick and easy these cards are to make using a little stamping, die cutting and some Designer Papers!

Cool Treats Ice-cream Card

Dear Crafters,

Today I have a deliciously sweet looking card for you using the Cool Treats Bundle which I made for my mum’s birthday today!!! I’m able to post it for you now, as we celebrated her birthday yesterday.

Who doesn’t love ice-cream right?!!! Check out the coordinating Designer Series paper, Tasty Treats. The sentiment is one that you could use for many occasions, not just birthdays.

I love how versatile this bundle is going to be. You can create masculine or feminine or anything you like, but swapping the colours.

I love the chocolate sauce dripping on the top scoop of ice-cream with a coordinating enamel dot on top!

Check out the gorgeous lace doilies too! I just love them. They come in a large pack and they are whisper white on one side and very vanilla on the other, making them so versatile. Be sure to get some of those for your projects!

Oh, and by the way, my mum loved her card of course 😉

feminine, Kids Cards, Stampin' Up!, Techniques & Tutorials

Ice-cream with a cherry on top!

Dear Crafters,

Oh, what a messy technique, but the outcome has such a variation and you can get so many designs from one go!

The Shaving Cream technique is one that I do not use regularly but it was part of a challenge for some swaps in our team and I didn’t want to waste the extra pieces that I printed, so I came up with another card to share with you, using the Sprinkles of Life stamp set and Tree Builder Punch.

I used Blushing Bride, Rich Razzleberry and Sweet Sugarplum reinkers into the shaving cream and swirled them around. I used shimmery white card to place into the shaving cream, lift it up and scrape the excess cream off with my pastry scraper (yes, it works great for this technique). Then I used some paper towel to buff it up and see the shimmer of the card.

Don’t these ice-creams look so yummy?!!! They remind me of the Sara Lee Blueberry Cheesecake ice-cream that is a favourite in our house. You really must try it, it is awesome!

And are you wondering how I did the cone?

Well, when we receive our Stampin’ Up! orders in a Big Brown Box, there is all that brown paper protecting our products…. it comes in handy, let me tell you!

You can scrunch it up and then glue it (or use JAC paper) to a piece of card and squash it flat. Stamp the image on it and then cut out the cone with paper snips.  Such a great way to add extra dimension to the cone!

What do you think of today’s projects?

Why don’t you give the baby wipe technique a go!

Birthday

Sprinkles of Life

Dear Crafters,

Today I share with you another sneak peek of some new product in the Annual Catalogue which starts 2 June!

This stamp set I use today is the Ronald McDonald House Charities set for this year. Stampin’ Up! donates time and money to support RMHC. To date, we’ve contributed over $1,000,000 to RMHC and their network of local RMHC Chapters. RMHC keeps families together and surrounded by love when their children are receiving medical treatment far from home.

Buy the Sprinkles of Life Stamp Set and Stampin’ Up! will donate $3 from every sale to RMHC.

But the bonus is that there is a coordinating punch!

Who doesn’t love ice-cream, right?!!!  It is certainly a special treat in our house and my kids love this card I am about to share with you today.

This stamp set is photopolymer, so it is completely clear so you can stamp exactly where you want it to be! Love, love, love my photopolymer stamps!!!

Sprinkles of Life

The base card is Pool Party with a layer of Strawberry Slush, then a layer of Watercolour paper. I stamped the ice-cream scoops onto Watercolour paper in the above inks and used my Aqua-painters to water colour the centres.

I used the coordinating Tree Builder Punch to cut them out. This makes cardmaking so easy!

Now, you know when your order of Stampin’ Up! goodies arrives at your door in a Big Brown Box and all that extra brown paper, well….. that brown paper does come in handy some times! Check out the cone – I scrunched up some of that brown paper and then flattened it slightly and put it on some card that has lots of rows of Fast Fuse on it. It sticks really well. Then I stamp the cone image and cut it out!

Sprinkles of Life

I added the ice-cream scoops and the happy birthday banner with dimensionals. The small pole is just a toothpick!

I absolutely love this set and know that you will too, especially once I share some other projects over the next few months as I am sure to make plenty with this set!

I would love you to comment below with your thoughts on this card.
