I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!
Here’s a move away from the usual flowers and butterflies on birthday cards (yes, my regular blog readers breathe a sign of relief). How fun is this birthday card? I think the ice cream and sundaes would be great for a birthday card of all ages.
The main image was done with the ‘direct to rubber’ technique which is simply to colour directly onto the rubber stamp with markers then stamp onto the cardstock. This gives the mutli-colour image. The background was created with the Diagonal Plate which is an accessory to Stampin’ Up!’s Score Board – some quick diagonal scoring was done to go with the waffle cone on the ice cream.
If you do like the patterned paper and Jelly Bean brads I’ve used here then you’ll want to hurry and order these as they’re going to be retiring in just over 2 weeks on the 31st of July 2012.
