Hey, EO fans! Last week I made a hot grilling card, but this week I'm cooling things off with a sweet ice cream card in yummy mint and strawberry colors. It says, "You're my favorite flavor." I bet you can guess what mine is... Yep! Mint chocolate chip is my ice cream of choice. Yum!
I made this card using a die set from my stash to form the mint chocolate chip ice cream bar. For the chocolate chips, I used a combination of small dark brown circles and the smallest Black Matte Enamel Dots. I topped the bar with an adorable Stitched Flower Brad. Next, I created the oval embellishment with a circle border stamp and a scallop die. It features two yummy Ice Cream Cone Brads in the center. I popped the ice cream embellishment up on foam tape and set it aside.
For a simple yet interesting background, I cut a piece of heavy ivory cardstock and ran it through a 3D embossing folder. I then dabbed some pink ink on the raised areas of the design and splattered some of the same pink ink on top to add a fun speckled look.
To put the card together, I first created an A2-sized card base out of cream cardstock and glued on the embossed mat. I then placed the sentiment strip and my other embellishments, finishing it off with a few more matte black enamel dots for a final touch.
Thanks for joining me here today and please visit the EO store for all your brads, washi tape, bling and paper flowers!
