.... I really enjoy CAS-ual Fridays - they always give us such a fun challenge. I missed last week - the unusual shaped cards had me beat! However, this week the CAS-ual Fridays - CFC 11 challenge is one I can play - but I'm close to deadline!!! They want us to make a clean and simple design that includes sweets and treats - cakes, ice-cream, cookies - what fun!!
I've got a sweet set of ice-cream stamps, sadly they've not seen much ink, so this is the perfect opportunity to get them out to play! In my stash I found a DL card that has a scalloped edge and is pink - just right! I stamped the ice-cream sundae twice onto plain white card and coloured with Promarkers. I attached the ice-cream image to the lovely lotus pendant and layered the ice-cream topping and umbrella! I added a bit of sparkle to the ice-cream and a cherry. I had a few cherries fall around the base of the sundae glass - looks delicious!! I ran a bright pink ribbon behind the pendant and stamped a simple birthday sentiment in the bottom corner. Ice-cream sweet!
Stamps: Woodware - Ice Cream Parfait
Spellbinders: Lotus Pendant (S4-269)
Inks: Memento - Tuxedo Black
Promarkers: Pale Pink, Baby Pink, Pastel Yellow, Sunflower, Poppy, Forest Green, Walnut
Accessories: Card and ribbon from stash
I've used our CR84FN34 colours (I've added a splash of red/green in the cherries) - see close up photo. Do check out the blog and play along.
That's all for now. I'm off to the hospital with Mum this morning - regular blood test and then some shopping. And Kathryn wants to join the reading scheme being run at the local library. It's going to be a fun and busy morning. Hopefully, it'll be a dry one!! See you later.

Lovely card Deborah, the die cut doily is a great background for the ice cream...I have these stamps and don't use them enough :)

Very effective - especially with the lotus pendant giving the semblance of a doily.
