Stampin' Up! Share A Milkshake

Try Stampin' On Tuesday Challenge #596.

Optional Theme: Sweets

For my card I used the Stampin' Up! Share a Milkshake stamp set & Fragrant Flowers stamp set (sentiment) along with Dandy Designs DSP and various dies.

Basic White cardstock was used as my card base with the next layers of DSP.

This ribbon is Balmy Blue/White Variegated Ribbon, which was colored using Dark Fresh Freesia Stampin' Blends markers.  It was wrapped around the card, adhered and a smaller piece cut and wrapped around the ribbon to tie in a knot.

The cone was die cut using Crumb Cake cardstock.  Then I added a little color variation by blending some color onto the edges using a Blending Brush.

The "ice cream" was die cut from Petal Pink cardstock and I also added a little more color with a blending brush and Petal Pink ink.  Another image was stamped using Soft Suede ink, die cut and tucked behind the Petal Pink images.

The cherry was stamped using Sweet Sorbet ink.

The large circle and smaller circle were die cut using Stylish Shapes Dies.

I did blend in some color around the sentiment circle with Fresh Freesia ink.  This was adhered with dimensionals.

The embellishments are Opaque Adhesive-Backed Gems.  White embellies go with just about anything!

For the this lattice die cut, I tried the Packaging Tape Technique.

Simply add packaging tape onto your cardstock (Fresh Freesia) or DSP (whichever you prefer) and die cut your images.

Although you cannot see the shine in my photo, it's pretty cool in person.

DSP was also added on the envelope flap.

Inside my card is DSP with a layer of Basic White cardstock.  The hearts were stamped using Petal Pink ink.

Corner Fun Fold Birthday Card

 Stamp Happy Academy is a membership site offering lots of inspiration and fun challenges.

The challenge for February is to CREATE A CARD WITH HEARTS.

I made a Corner Fun Fold Birthday card using the Stampin' Up! Friendly Gnomes Stamps & Dies, Share A Milkshake Dies and Dandy Designs DSP.

The fun fold portion is DSP, which is a great way to showcase both sides of these pretty patterns!

The layers of cardstock are Balmy Blue, next Night of Navy and finally Basic White.

To prep the Basic White, using my Blending Brush and Balmy Blue ink, lightly brushed color around the edges.  Next, using one of the stencils from the Artistic Mix Decorative Masks and Night of Navy ink, lightly and randomly stenciled on the white.

The mushroom home was stamped directly onto the white cardstock.  The gnome and bird were also stamped using Memento ink, fussy cut and colored using Balmy Blue, Night of Navy, Granny Apple Green, Petal Pink, Calypso Coral, Sweet Sorbet, Gray Granite and #600 Stampin' Blends Markers. They were adhered with dimensionals.

The hearts were die cut from the Share a Milkshake Dies.

Linen Thread was colored using Dark Night of Navy Stampin' Blends, wrapped around the white cardstock and tied in a bow.  The sentiment was stamped using Night of Navy ink.

This is the fun fold opened up.  I really nice surprise for whoever opens it up!

Inside on the upper flap, is Night of Navy, Balmy Blue and Basic White cardstock.

The Basic White cardstock was prepped the same as on the front of the card.

The gnome was colored using Night of Navy, Balmy Blue and Sweet Sorbet Stampin' Blends.

The balloons were colored Balmy Blue and Granny Apple Green Blends.  The blue balloon was adhered with a single dimensional.  The grass was stamped using Granny Apple Green along the bottom.  Additional grass die cuts were added using Granny Apple Green cardstock and tucked behind the gnome.

The squirrel was colored with Gray Granite, fussy cut and adhered with a dimensional.

The sentiment was stamped using Night of Navy ink.

Additional die cut hearts (Sweet Sorbet cardstock) were added around the sentiment.

Inside the card, on the right, is Balmy Blue, Night of Navy & Basic White cardstock.

Sentiment stamped with Night of Navy.

An additional grass die cut was added in the lower left.  

The bird was also colored and fussy cut and tucked slightly behind the grass.

The balloon was colored with Balmy Blue Stampin' Blends, fussy cut and adhered with liquid adhesive.

A Sweet Sorbet heart die cut was also added.

Showing how the cards opens up.

Thanks so much for stopping by today and I hope you enjoyed my fun fold card.
