Voila is such a fun stamp set - I have just loved this chef dude over the last few years! Here is a gift set we made once, featuring the Voila chef with stamped Coasters and Magnets.

Sweet Scoops - Patriotic

stampin up, sweet scoopsHow about this patriotic ice cream cone using the Sweet Scoops stamp set from Stampin' Up! This is one of my June stamp camp cards. We cut out and layered up the three Red, White, Blue scoops that are all glittered and sparkly from Iridescent Ice Embossing Powder.

The ribbon ruffle is created using a strip of Sticky Strip and the beautiful White Satin Ribbon, tacked down here and there. I also sprayed the Creamy Caramel layer with Shimmer Mist mixed with Rubbing Alcohol before I ran it through my Big Shot with the Perfect Details Texture Plate - the perfect ice cream cone texture.

Cardstock: Ruby Red, Brilliant Blue, Creamy Caramel, Whisper White

Come stamp with us each month - we have a lot of fun! I used the Stampin' Up! Butterfly Die for the Big Shot and some Craft Inks with the (soon to be retiring - sob!) Glassy Glaze Embossing Powder. The cardstock colors in this card are soon to be retired - Taken with Teal, Close to Cocoa, Apricot Appeal - as well as the Chocolate Taffeta Ribbon. Be sure to order those retiring items before they are gone!
