Banana Split Card




The paper is from Echo Park's Summer Days 6 by 6 pad.

The little bow was tied using some Stampin' Up ribbon I got free during the last Sale-a-bration.  I used a Labels One Nestability cut, and cut off the top portion of it.  I stamped a cute sentiment from Sweet Stamp Shop's Jars of Sweets.  It says " Delectable delicious scrumptious yummy sweets.  I stamped it using Tempting Turquiouse ink from Stampin' Up.  I used that some color maker to add some faux stitching lines.

The banana split was cut using my Silhouette.  It's design 9746.  I'm not even sure if I put it together "correctly" but I think it looks OK.  There were lots of little pieces and I found it a bit confusing so I just did the best I could.  I added Glossy Accents to the chocolate and it looks like shiny hot fudge in person - so fun.

The ric rac along the bottom was just a random bit from my stash.

Thanks for checking out my "sweet" card :)

Food Card Set




Here's a little card set I whipped up.  The cards all measure 4 inches square not counting the circle that sticks up over the top.

The stamps are from Sweet Stamp Shop's Perfect Match.  I was so excited about these images I couldn't pick just one set, so I decided to make 3 cards.

All of the patterned papers are scraps from my Echo Park SUmmer Days 6 by 6 pad.  I had to make some design compromises to make the best use of the scraps and have all the cards with the same layout.

Along the bottom of the cards I used a Scallop Border Punch from Stampin' Up.  That piece is 3/4 inches tall.

Above that I used some Twine from the Twinery.  Each card features a button.  The blue one comes from the Miachael's dollar section and the other 2 are Papertrey Ink.

For the patterned strips behind the images they are just 1/2 inch tall.

I used my Nestabilities to cut out a scalloped circle in color, and then a plain white circle.  The scallop is laid flat to the card, with the top portion hanging off the top.  The white portion is up on pop dots.

I used Copics to color all the images and used a Copic Multilier to add lots of Stitching Llines and dots.  The little dots are all around the scallops, but they seem to be hiding in the photograph.

I'm entering this in the Sweet Stamp Shop Use What You Have Challenge.  Here's a photo of my scrap pile from this paper pad that I'm trying to use up.


Here's a link to this fun challenge if you'd like to use some of your old stash and enter it too!
