Hi peeps, happy Friday! I have a quick, fun little card using the retiring Sweet Ice Cream stamp set and the Tuesday Morning Sketches sketch! It features the Mackey family's FAVORITE ice cream flavor, mint chocolate chip! I say the Mackey family because neither John nor Wayne like it...hahaha, more for us girls! Anyway, here's the sketch:
And here's the card:
I started with a piece of Hand Penned DSP that features a stripey Mint Macaron design, and "stitched" the edges with the Stitchery zigzag stamp. I stamped the ice cream in Mint Macaron and decided to add a Soft Suede "chocolate" dip as well! I added some chocolate chips, then punched them both out and set them atop a Crumb Cake cone! They were all mounted in a Basic White circle diecut with a Stitched Shapes circle, then a mat of Early Espresso and scallop mat of Mint Macaron. The sentiment was diecut with the Stitched So Sweetly dies. I did add some Wink of Stella to the ice cream and sprinkled on some starry sequins:
I had cut apart the birthday sentiment a while ago because I like to be able to "stack" the words on top of each other instead of using them lengthwise. The photopolymer stamps are easy to cut apart and just as easy to line up again if you want to use them in their original position! I stamped these in Mint Macaron and it was done! Thanks for popping in today!
And I am also entering this at Festive Friday, since I have food, birthday, punches and pastels in my card!
Enjoy your day and be blessed!

Your card looks good enough to eat! Mint chocolate chip was one of Perry's favorites. He loved ice cream...me not so much!!
I too love mint chocolate chip ice cream. So I love that image. The background is perfect. Very creative to use a stamp for the stitched feature. Thanks for joining Tuesday Morning Sketches.

Yum, yum, yum! Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream is one of my faves, too, LeAnne. Your card is adorable. I LOVE the colors and your layout. The zigzag stamp is so realistic. Thank you for sharing with Festive Friday this week!
LeAnne, the mint macaron striped paper is just perfect for your "cool" sentiment. Chocolate mint. yummy! That zigzag stamp is amazing - it looks so real. Great take on the INSPO list, so glad you joined us at Festive Friday this week
