National Ice Cream Day

Yesterday was National Ice Cream Day.  Since we did not go out for ice cream, I was making ice cream themed cards.  Today's card was made a few days ago, but it was the cutest one I made these last few days.  Everything thing used on the card is from Sunny Studio Stamps with the exception of the punch used for the sentiment which is from Stampin' Up.  After coloring all of the ice cream treats using alcohol markers, I brushed the white cardstock with pink ink and added the striped paper.  After arranging things the way I wanted, I added some clear sequins.  This card reminds me of the tasty treats we would get at the old ice cream parlors we used to go to when we were kids. 


 Have a great week!

Tea-rrific

Earlier this week I posted a card created with Stampin' Up products with the exception of the tea cup.  Today's card was created using the same tea cup AND the saucer.  Also included are the cute accessories~~the spoon and sugar cubes.  Everything on this card was made using Lawn Fawn products.


I have yet to add a sentiment, but I will add that when I know for what occasion this card is being used.  Have a great day!

I received my Stampin' Up order that included the Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper.  I had previously ordered the Happiness Abounds stamp set and dies earlier in the month, thinking I really did not need more paper.  Well, I thought wrong.  After receiving the order with the stamp set and punch, I started seeing all of the pretty cards using the dies with the coordinating paper.  When the free shipping day happened, I placed an order for the paper.  

Today's card was made using flowers from the Hues of Happiness paper, Starry Night cardstock and ink, a retired SU set for the sentiment and Deckled Rectangle dies from Stampin' Up.  The vase for the flowers is a tea cup created using the Stitched Tea Cup die from Lawn Fawn.  Before adding the pieces to the white cardstock layer, I splattered some Starry Night ink on it.  When I was finished, the card needed a little something more, so a few rhinestones were added.  Have a great week!

Den Sweet Den

 I usually make Matt a Dad's Day card using dog images.  This year, I decided bears would be good since we are in Tennessee.  The set used is from Lawn Fawn.  With pattern paper, I was able to make it look as though the bears are all on the floor and the wall in their little den is decorated.  Have a great day!
