Stamping with Jen Ice Cream Corner

 The catalogue launches today!!!!! I am so excited to finally be able to show it to you!!! And to celebrate, we will make this cute card using the Sweet Ice Cream stamp set and products from the Ice Cream corner suite!

If you like this card, make sure you sign up for my Ice Cream Corner card class, today is the last day to RSVP!


The measurements to make this card are as follows:

- Card base - calypso coral: 8 1/2 X 5 1/2, scored at 4 1/4

- First layer 5 3/8 X 4 1/8 - Petal pink

- DSP layer 4 X 5 1/4

- Petal Pink strip - 1 7/8 X 5 1/4

- Whisper White - 1 3/4 X 5 1/4, run through the Stampin' Cut and Emboss machine using the painted texture 3D embossing folder

- scrap whisper white 1 inch wide and however long you need for the sentiment of your choice.

I sponged the white panel and the sentiment banner with calypso coral using our new blending brushes. I used the twine from the Snail Mail suite and wrapped it around the card three times adhering to the back with glue dots.  I then tied a double bow and adhered also with a glue dot.   I embellished the front with the Ice Cream corner sprinkles. 

The ice cream cones are cut from the Ice Cream Corner DSP and glued on.  This is such as an easy card to make and it would be perfect for a birthday card too !!  Let me know what you think.

Happy Stamping

Stamping with Jen Fine Art Floral International Blog Highlights January Thank You Card

 The new January to June Mini catalogue starts tomorrow!!! Here is a card from one of my favourite suites in the catalogue, the Fine Art Floral Suite.  For this card I just used the Art Gallery stamp set, Floral Gallery Dies and the Painted Textures 3D embossing folder from the suite.

The theme of the blog highlights is "Thank You".

This card is very easy to make.  I stamped the large flower and stem on a piece of Blackberry Bliss using Versamark and then heat embossed with white embossing powder.  I then coloured the stems using the old olive blends and the flower using petal pink, flirty flamingo and rich razzleberry blends.  After the ink had dried, I cut out using the largest square of the Stitched So Sweetly dies and then ran that and a piece of whisper white cards stock through the Stampin' Cut and Emboss machine with the Painted Texture 3D embossing folder.  Using our new blending brushes, I added Blackberry Bliss ink to the whisper white panel.  I stamped the sentiment using blackberry bliss and cut out using the Floral Gallery Dies.  Using the  Blushing Bride twine from the Snail Mail Twine Combo pack, I wrapped the twine around the panel twice adhering to the back with mini glue dots.  I added a little bling from the Elegant Faceted Gems.



I kept the inside simple and coloured the stamp using blackberry bliss and old olive Stampin Write markers and the sentiment is from Ornate Thanks.

This card is so easy to make!!!

The card base and first layer are Misty Moonlight cardstock.  Card base is 81/2 X 5 1/2 scored at 4 1/4 and folded in half.  The first layer is 5 1/4X 4 and run through the Stampin' Cut and Emboss machine using the new Painted Texture 3D embossing folder (available Jan 5).  The strip of designer series paper (DSP) is from the Flower & Field DSP pack that is a free SAB item starting Jan 5 and measures 5 1/4 X 1 1/2.  The Just Jade strip behind it measures 5 1/4 X 1 5/8.  I cut the Just Jade oval out using the Layering Oval Dies (the largest one) and the cut the whisper white panel using the largest oval of the Stitched Shapes dies.  For stamping I used Memento ink and Misty Moonlight.  And I coloured the donkey using Gray Granite blends.
