Keep cool with this summer Ice Cream card design- it’s MINT to be!
Today Amy is keeping it cool with this super sweet ice cream design with some adorable and punny word play. Amy said, “Don’t you think that ice cream and summer go hand in hand? I spotted a triple scoop ice cream cone on Pinterest that inspired today’s card.” We love when inspiration strikes and we can channel that into our art. Follow along as Amy walks us through the steps to recreate this Triple Scoop card for summer.
- Stencil the Falling Snow onto a mint panel with Pecan Ink – Color Fuse Set 3
- Cut the chocolate chip mint ice cream scoops out with Sweet Treats set with your die cutter.
- Cut the double layer cones from kraft cardstock using the Sweet Treats set.
- Yes, a cherry is in the Sweet Treats set but I used the double layer one from the Mai Tai set.
- Ink blend the cherry pieces with Scarlet + Crimson from Color Fuse 4 and Pecan from Color Fuse 3.
- Cut the Small Classic Alpha out in white cardstock twice.
- Spell out Mint to Be in the larger alpha and You and Me in the smaller alpha. Use a detail blending brush with Pecan ink from Color Fuse set 3.
- Using the three chocolate mint scoops, glue the words Mint, to, be to each scoop. Adhere together with the cone. Top with the cherry.
- Cut a 4.0×4.25 panel from the confetti pattern paper from the Funfetti Confetti paper pack. Using the Swanky Scallop Oval, center it in the panel and die cut.
- Stack all the elements, starting with an A2 white panel – 1. Adhere the confetti panel, centered. 2. Adhere the triple scoop cone. 3. Finish off the card with the You and Me sentiment glued.
