Ice cream shaped edge Birthday Card

Hello my crafty Friends,

Oh my goodness where to start with this card.  Well first of all I loved these papers so much from last weeks card I had to use up some more of the scraps from it.  The Paper Studio Uptown Flair Stack.

The card base itself I created in CCR with the adorable ice cream cone from Indie Art cartridge, love this super cute ice cream cone!  I embossed the cone part with Sizzix Diamonds folder to give it some more definition.  The face stamp is Peachy Keen and is from a cute large Gingerbread dolls set and I thought her face would be perfect for this ice cream cone.  I used white gel pen to enhance her eyes, pink gel pen for her nose, pink chalk for her cheeks. I added glossy accents in the white parts of the ice cream scoop and sprinkled some green and pink and white sequins on her head to represent ice cream sprinkles.

The flower is from spellbinders "Jewel flower and flourishes"  I cut once in black and then once in pink.  I stamped a cute little "For You" stamp in the middle of the flower which is from Craftin Desert Diva's "Short & Sweet Tags" ah, Perfect fit!  Then I edged around that with glossy accents and added neon green fine glitter over the top.  

 

The "Sweet" stamp is from some scrapbooking sets I bought at oriental trading co when I first started out years ago so I don't remember the maker.  Anyway for the background layers for the stamp I took my pencil and drew around my entire stamp on white cardstock. Then I took that to my scan and cut and had it cut out the penciled outline. Yay, worked perfect...Awesomeness!  Then I added an outline for the next cut in Pink and a little bit bigger outline cut from the green.  Perfect layers... so happy!!!  Then I stamped the sweet stamp onto the white layer in versaMark ink and embossed with black Zing embossing powder.  I layered all of the pieces together and adhered to my card and sprinkled on some more sequins to enhance, in pink and green this time.  

Card Inside

On the inside I used a fun greeting I created on my computer and cut to fit behind the front panel.  I really love how this card came out and I will find it hard to give away lol. But I think this one will end up being for my grand daughter who is turning 9 and I know she will love it.  Hmmmm or maybe it is a little too young for her.... I don't know we will see hahahaha.
