I created this card for my mom for her 82nd birthday, which we celebrated recently. I have to admit, when I first saw this stamp set, I honestly thought the ice cream cone was a cupcake with the icing piled high! It wasn't until I saw a card here on Splitcoast that I realized it is an ice cream cone. When I looked at the stamp again this time, with that knowledge in hand, I saw it so clearly. Duh! LOL
I die cut the main panel with the "Stitched Journaling Card" die from bristol paper. I stamped the image in Soft Granite ink, and colored it with my Zig Clean Color markers. I used a damp paintbrush to help with the shading.
I cut 2 panels of patterned paper to size, and adhered them to a white card base. I stamped the greeting (also from "Mice Wishes") onto a scrap of the "Watercolor" patterned paper with Versamark ink. I heat embossed it with white powder, and die cut it with a "Stitched Circles" die. I adhered my focal panel in place, glued on the greeting circle, and added Nuvo Glitter Drops above and below the main panel. This card, except for the coloring, came together super fast! And Mama loved it--bonus!

Cute card and fun pp and image combo, Andrea. That ice cream cone reminds me of the cupcakes my mom baked in cones when I was little. They tasted awful =( It was one of those 60s homemaker fads.
