Such a gorgeous color combination from the talented Katy McGloin!!  I had a little bit of trouble getting started and then thought of my Sprinkles of Life set.  I was going to make a black raspberry ice cream cone but ended up making a cupcake.  I used Thoughtful Banners for the sentiment on the first card.  The dsp is actually envelope paper in Sweet Sugarplum.  I tied the Rouched Ribbon with some Island Indigo Bakers Twine from a Paper Pumpkin kit.  I added a touch of Clear Wink of Stella on the flames after coloring in with Copics.  And you know me, I ended up making another card to see if I liked it any better.   On the second, I used Birthday Blossoms and the Pansy Punch.  It is mounted on two layers of doilies.  The sentiment is from Balloon Celebration, and I finished it off with a few enamel shapes.

Please let me know which one you like best.  Thanks for stopping by!

A masculine ice cream cone

I warned you that I would have a few ice cream cards coming up!  This is my male version of the last one I posted.  It's for a high school freshman so I didn't want any frills.

As I mentioned, this Stampin' Up! set called Sprinkles of Life is so much fun!  You can make cupcakes, clouds, ice cream, etc.  I started on ice cream cones and had so much fun that I kept going.

In case you didn't read my previous post, this set is awesome but even more so because Stampin' Up! donates $3 to the Ronald McDonald House for each set purchased!

Ice Creams everywhere...

I have a big list of birthday cards I need for July and August, so I decided to break out the Sprinkles with Life set.  I think this one will be for my granddaughter who is turning five.  I still can't believe that!!   I am in love with the Sprinkles of Life set!  When combined with the tree punch, it can be used for so many things!  Stampin' Up! donates $3 to the Ronald McDonald House for each purchase. What a great cause!

Just a warning -- I will probably be posting a few cupcake ICE CREAM cards over the next week or so.  Once I got going, I couldn't stop! ( I just noticed that I kept referring to the ice creams as cupcakes!  Must have had a bad day! LOL)

Can I just confess to a little ooopsie?  I thought Island Indigo was in the Cherry on Top dsp, not Bermuda Bay.  I used the wrong cs, but I think it works okay.  Let me know what you think!

PPA 254

I made this for the Pals Paper Arts Color Challenge.  I love this combination of colors!  As soon as I saw it, I knew I had to use my brand new Sprinkles of Life RMHC stamp set.  When you buy this set, Stampin' Up! donates $3 to the Ronald McDonald House Charities.  What a great cause!  Not only that, but it's an adorable set. This is in the new catalog which starts June 2.  The punch which coordinates with the set is the Tree Builder Punch.  

I also used the new banner triple punch which I love!  It can cut any length banner in three widths, 1", 1 1/2" and 2".  How versatile is that?!
