Before we start remember to read all of today’s information in this newsletter. Important things are going on.
We are not there yet, but anything of the year is great for ice cream. So this card will get you thinking of summer. So let us step up our creations. If you are just starting keep it simple. Whereas you have made a few cards now is the time to go up a step. Then remember to keep building on your creations.
Chocolate or vanilla? Fortunately, we don’t have to answer THAT age-old question, but we can say that our Ice Cream Swirl Bundle (which includes the Ice Cream Swirl Stamp Set and Dies) is delicious enough for anyone to enjoy. It also happens to be a perfect choice for step-up projects!
CASEABLE
What’s the scoop on our “CASEable” version? Keep it simple using tone-on-tone stamping, die-cut images, a Lighter than Air Designer Series Paper banner embellishment, and a trio of our new Rainbow Adhesive-Backed Dots. We finished with a sentiment stamped in Bubble Bath ink on Basic White Cardstock. Sweet!
APPROACHABLE AVID
To make the yummy and refreshing “Approachable Avid” card really pop, we made a simple frame with Pool Party Cardstock; we also used the ice cream swirl and wafer cone detail dies to add an extra layer of fun. The striped, Lighter than Air Designer Series Papers (with its ice cream parlor vibe) provides the perfect, pastel background.
ARTFULLY AVID
To create the “Artfully Avid” Pool Party Cardstock gift packaging, we started with a watercolor wash on Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper and die-cut the shapes (including a cherry and rolled wafer cookie, this time!). Do you love the scalloped ice cream cone wrapper and the sunny Lemon Lolly Baker’s Twine bow? Such cute touches make this the perfect gift packaging for any summer occasion!
