There’s only a week and a half left to get your favourite retiring products from the January-June Mini catalogue! This week I’m featuring some of the Ice Cream Corner suite of products. I love just about all of these products! My favourite, which is retiring, is the Ice Cream Corner Designer Series Paper. But for this card instead of showing off the paper I’m showing you how to make your own Designer Series Paper. (Heads up… the Sweet Ice Cream stamp set and coordinating punch isn’t a bundle in the new Annual catalogue so get your 10% while you still can!)
For this card design I started with the Sweet Ice Cream stamp set and the Gorgeous Grape Sheer ribbon. To go with the Gorgeous Grape I decided to use Bermuda Bay. This is a great colour to use with this stamp set! Actually they both are… they’re both such nice bright colours. Now to make my own DSP I had to pick a few other colours. So I went with Crumb Cake and Petal Pink. The important thing to remember when you want to make your own DSP is to start with the larger images. It’s easier to fill in any leftover spaces with smaller images. Then just randomly stamp your images over the cardstock.
I also used Petal Pink for my other ice cream scoop and I paired Crumb Cake with Cinnamon Cider to make my cone. The other scoop and phrase were stamped with Bermuda Bay. I popped up this piece over the sheer ribbon using a few Stampin’ Dimensionals. And for my bit of bling I added a few of the Artistry Blooms Adhesive Backed Sequins.
This was a fun card to make! I think I need to do the make your own Designer Series Paper more often. Check out my YouTube channel for a walk through of this card. This was one I made for my Stamp & Jammies online card class. You can find out about my next Stamp & Jammies class here!
