Treat Yourself with Sweet Ice Cream

Yesterday I shared some details about April’s Paper Pumpkin kit that centers around summer sweet treats. If you missed that post, you can see more here. If you receive Paper Pumpkin each month (but your demonstrator has since left the company or you were a demonstrator but still receive the kit), I would LOVE for you to consider adding me as your demonstrator. ♥

Because that kit coordinates with the Ice Cream Corner Designer Series Paper, which is available for purchase from the January – June 2021 Mini Catalog, I got an itch to pull out that paper and play. Here’s the card:

Tips, Tricks and Reminders

• Ice Cream Corner Designer Series Paper. I love the colorful, sweet (and delicious) images in the Ice Cream Corner Designer Series Paper. These Popsicles and ice cream cones are perfect for Summer, and the colors that are woven into these designs are wonderful! I used two patterns from this pack of papers on my card. Here’s a look at the colors and patterns in the Ice Cream Corner Designer Series Paper: If you’d like to flip through the fun pages of this pack of papers in my online store, click on the photo below:
• All Askew. My card was done – two panels of paper, perfectly lined up (staggered but straight up and down) on my card with a sentiment that fell into line with the layers. The pages of this paper are fun, but I needed something a little different. Rather than add to the card, I simply cut the Stampin’ Dimensionals off the back of the Popsicle layer  and off the back of the sentiment to reposition the layers. I decided to set the Popsicles askew a bit and to position the sentiment so it was lined up with the card base. It’s just a little detail that made my card a little different. Yay! My fun sentiment is from the Sweet Ice Cream stamp set – I love this sentiment! While the bundle is currently on backorder (more are coming this week), the bundle can still be purchased today.
• Layers. This is a simple card that was also really fun to pull together. The layout works with all sorts of papers and could be enhanced with ribbon or embellishments. I tried to add the gorgeous Blackberry Bliss 3/8″ Striped Ribbon, but I didn’t have room for a beautiful bow. Point is – if you like this layout, you can adapt it to any papers and colors. Here are the layers on my card, starting at the base and working my way up to the sentiment:
  • Blackberry Bliss – 4-1/4″ x 11″ (scored at 5-1/2″)
  • Ice Cream Corner Designer Series Paper – 3-1/4″ x 5-1/4″
  • Stampin’ Dimensionals
