Share a Milkshake card with video & free projects sheet!

April 3, 2023

The Share a Milkshake bundle is SWEET and super fun to create with. We made this fun card at my March card clubs:

You can see the Share a Milkshake bundle here; it's filled with cute 2-step images, quirky font greetings and fabulous dies. See that straw in the ice cream? It fits into a 'slit' in the die-cut ice cream piece.

*This bundle is carrying over into the new Annual catalog but it will not be a bundle at 10% off any longer; the stamp set & dies will be sold separately.

That bottom large die above folds into a textured sugar cone; you can then insert your 'scoops' of ice cream in it like the project below shared by Stampin' Up!

Save

Here's what we stamped inside our card. The 2-step bowl of ice cream with a die-cut silver spoon is extra special.

Save

My colors include Coastal Cabana, Sweet Sorbet and Polished Pink with a bit of Early Espresso for the chocolate topping die-cuts. the striped DSP on the bottom is from the Country Floral Lane DSP in the Spring catalog.

Rainbow of Happiness in Black & White with a ‘pop’ of color!

March 24, 2022
I saw a similar card using the Rainbow of Happiness that was in Black & pink and I knew it would be perfect for my Flowerbug's Team swap this month. The theme was Black & White with a 'pop' of color.

I chose to use Magenta Madness. It's retiring this month and available here while supplies last.

Save

I stamped the three rainbows in Black Memento ink using my Stamparatus. Making multiple cards with the Stamparatus is THE BEST WAY! There's no guessing with stamp placement.

Save

Details:
- The stamps (hearts, rainbows & greeting) and cloud die-cuts are all from the Rainbow of Happiness bundle seen here.
- I stamped 'thank you' on scraps of Magenta Madness and punched it out with our Double Oval punch for the rainbow center.
- The designer paper in Black & White is from the All Together 6 X 6" pack seen here.
- The gems are the 2021-23 In Color jewels seen here.
- The Magenta Madness patterned paper is part of the 6X 6" DSP pack seen here.
