Share A Milkshake With A Cherry On Top Card

-

Hi Crafting Friend,
The Spring Equinox is upon us which means that Summer's heat isn't far behind. That makes a card with a depiction of a cool treat, or two, quite appropriate for today's post.
The card base is Calypso Coral, 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4" folded and burnished.
The insert is Basic White, 5 1/4" X 4
The Lemon Lolly striped layer, 5 1/4" X 4, is from the Lighter Than Air DSP paper pack. 
The sentiment is stamped on Basic White with Sweet Sorbet ink and punched with the retired Rectangular Postage Punch, but one of the smaller Perennial Postage dies would make a good substitute. It is adhered to the card front with dimensionals.
The cone for the ice cream was die-cut from Crumb Cake and inked with Pecan Pie using a sponge dauber. 
The bottom scoop was die-cut from a scrap of strawberry print Calypso Coral in the Delightfully Eclectic DSP paper pack, but a scrap of cardstock would work too. 
For the top scoop the die was traced and fussy cut (the die cuts a slit for the straw that would have shown, as seen in the milkshake on the right) from a multicolored diamond print in the Lighter Than Air DSP paper pack, then the edges were inked with Bubble Bath using a sponge dauber. 
The whipped cream is die-cut from Basic White. 
After folding and adhering the cone together, it was stuffed with a small piece of a cotton ball, the scoops of ice cream and whipped cream were adhered to the top of the cone and the cotton sticking out of it. The cone is adhered to the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Glue, as are the edges of the ice cream. This gives it great dimension, but I'm not sure it would go through the cancelling machine at the post office because of how much it sticks up.
The chocolate milkshake is stamped with Pecan Pie on Basic White, then die-cut. 
The scoop of vanilla ice cream, straw, and whipped cream are die-cut from Basic White. 
The ice cream is edged and lightly colored with Pecan Pie ink and a sponge dauber. 
The straw is colored with Bubble Bath and a sponge dauber. 
The whipped cream is lightly edged with Pecan Pie. 
The cherry is die cut twice. Once from Garden Green and once from Sweet Sorbet. Cut the stem off the Sweet Sorbet and adhere it on top of the Garden Green. 
Adhere the pieces of the milkshake together, then use a Dimensional and a couple of Mini Dimensionals in the center with Multipurpose Liquid Glue around the edges to adhere it to the card front.
The products are linked at the bottom of the post.


 Its almost time for the new Annual Catalog which means that one set of In Colors is retiring and a new set is being added. If you love the retiring colors, I suggest you get your favorites ASAP because retiring In Colors alway sell out!  The links for the last chance lists are below, as is a link to my online store.
 Shop with me here.      
Until the end of April, if you use this host code (RYTQE9EH) with your order, I will send you a small 
surprise thank you gift.

Hello Hills of Tuscany Fun Fold Card

-
Image
 Hi Crafting Friend, Welcome to 2024, the new Mini Catalog and the Sale-A-Bration Brochure. This Spring Mini catalog is always my favorite, especially when you add the benefits of Sale-A-Bration to it. There are so many adorable stamp sets, dies, DSPs and other goodies! Do you like this catalog as much as I do?  Today's card uses the Hills of Tuscany stamp set. The images were stamped directly onto the DSP, (house - white craft ink, roof - Cherry Cobbler, trees and sentiment - Shaded Spruce) the house was then heat embossed with white embossing powder. The card base is Shaded Spruce cut to 8 1/2 X 5 1/2 and scored on the long side at 2 3/4 and 4 1/4. Fold it in half and then fold the card front back as shown in the photos below.  The Gorgeous Grape layers are 1 7/8 X 5 1/4 for the front and inside left; and 4 X 5 1/4 for the right side.  Cut a 1 inch strip off the top of the DSP to use on another project, then cut 2 pieces, each 1 3/4 wide from the left side (the trees that you sta

Grassy Grove Clean & Simple Card

 Hi Crafting Friend, This card was inspired by a couple of cards I saw on the Facebook Clean & Simple Cardmaking page.  (by Tracey Agli & Darla Anderson Welch) They were both mostly white with some color blending and minor stamping behind the tree dies they used. I thought of these stamps & dies when I saw them.  The card base is 8.5 X 5.5 scored on the long side at 4.25 then folded and burnished to lay flat. The doe and fawn were each die-cut twice, once with Pecan Pie and once with Basic Black then layered together with the black in the front. Place black mini dimensionals as shown in the photo below.  The "moon" is a 1 inch punched Lemon Lolly circle.  The grove of trees was also die-cut twice, once on a 4 X 5.25 piece of Early Eapresso, the second on a piece of Early Espresso just barely bigger than the die itself. The smaller die-cut was off set behind the larger, then Multipurpose Liquid Glue was used at the bottom edge of the smaller die-cut to secure them

Hello Happy Sea Turtle Card

-
Image
 Hi Stamping Friend, The card I have for you this week is the second of three I designed for the swap using products from the new January-April 2023 Mini catalog and the Sale-A-Bration brochure. I paired the Sea Turtle and Happy Labels stamp sets from the mini catalog with Delicate Edges dies and Texture Chic DSP from the annual catalog. To me they seem made for each other.  This card is really quite simple if you have the basic tools. The DSP makes a perfect background. The turtle is fussy cut, the "seaweed" is die-cut. I gave the seaweed & turtle some dimension by using my bone folder to add some curl to the paper. The turtle is popped up with dimensionals, the seaweed is adhered with Multi-Purpose Liquid Glue, but I played with it, making sure some areas were slightly raised off the paper so it looks like it could be moving in the water. What do you think?   Thanks for stopping by, Live Long & Craft On! -Susan 🌄🖖 Product List Sea Turtle Photopolymer S
