Ice Cream Bash

Create your background, using a bit of shaving cream. Believe it or not, the foamy shaving cream allows you to mix colors and lift them onto your background. Then simply wipe the cream away with a paper towel and let it all dry for a few minutes. Thoughts? 

Stamps:

   Birthday Banners

   Coffee Cafe

Paper:

   Pink Pirouette A-2

   Basic White 5-1/4 x 4 (2)

Ink:

   Pink Pirouette

   Night of Navy

Re-Inkers:

   Lovely Lilac

   Pool Party

Technique:

   Shaving Cream

Accessories:

   Shaving Cream (Foamy)

   Adhesive

First, I created the background using the Shaving Cream technique found at Split Coast Stampers. Click HERE for written instructions, pictures, and a short video.

I then stamped a sentiment, using Night of Navy and an ice-cream cone image, using Pink Pirouette. I added a few lines on the cone with a marker.

Lastly, I adhered the panel onto a Pink Pirouette card front and adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.

HAPPY STAMPING!

Hello You

I was challenged to use a masking technique. As usual, I took the easy way out and chose the Crazy About You stamp set because it has a punch to easily create a mask for the flower. In retrospect, I should have fussy cut closer to each petal. What do you think? 

Stamps:

   Crazy About You

   Birthday Banners

Paper:

   Basic White A-2, 5-1/4 x 4 (2), Scrap 

Ink:

   Archival Basic Black

   Melon Mambo

   Real Red

   Rose Red

   Sweet Sugarplum

Technique:

   Masking

   Die Cutting

   Punching

Accessories:

   Bunch of Banners Framelits

   Flower Medallion Punch

   Fire Circles Rhinestone Brad

   Dimensionals

   Adhesive

First, I stamped and punched out the flower medallion to create a mask.

I then stamped the flower on the Basic White panel where I wanted to create focus.

Next, I added the mask to cover it. I used a temporary adhesive. You can now purchase masking paper for this step. 

I then stamped various flowers around it, using various reds (listed above) to cover the panel. You can add or move the mask around to the other flowers, but I chose not to do this.

Next, I added a rhinestone brad to the center of the main flower.

I then adhered the panel to the Basic White card front.

Next, I stamped and die cut the sentiment. This can easily be changed to suit your current need.

Lastly, I attached the banner, using dimensionals, and adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.

Birthday Sweaters

I really like all of the texture on this card, especially with the dry embossing folder. Thoughts? 

Stamps:

   Balloon Celebration

   Birthday Banners

Paper:

   Dapper Denim A-2

   Marina Mist 5-1/4 x 4

   Basic White Scraps, 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside)

Ink:

   Archival Basic Black

   Cucumber Crush

   Marina Mist

   Real Red

Technique:

   Die Cutting

   Dry Embossing

   Punching

   Sponging

Accessories:

   1/2" Black Scallop Dots Ribbon 4-1/4"

   Cherry Cobbler Baker's Twine

   Sponge

   Dimensionals

   Glue Dots

   Adhesive

First, I stamped and punched out the balloons, using Cucumber Crush ink, Real Red ink, and the Balloon Bouquet punch.

I then stamped, die cut, and sponged the sentiment. I used the sentiment from the Birthday Banners stamp set and the Archival Basic Black ink to stamp it. I then die cut it, using the Bunch of Banners Framelits dies, and then sponged it with a bit of Marina Mist ink.

Next, I dry embossed the Marina Mist panel with the Cable Knit 3D Embossing Folder. You may want to mist the panel before embossing to prevent any tearing.

I then adhered the Marina Mist panel onto the Dapper Denim card front.

Next, I added the ribbon across the lower front of the card, using glue dots.

I then added the sentiment with a few glue dots.

Next, I attached the balloons, using dimensionals.

I tied the twine into a bow and added it to the balloons with a glue dot.

Lastly, I adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.
