Since we did sherbet yesterday, we need to do Ice Cream today! I started with the Amazing Life stamp set from the Occasions catalog.

And inside we have the Karen Burniston Ice Cream Sundae die doing a full blown banana split!

The banana is part of a circle die! I added lots of chocolate syrup, a cone and a cherry on the top. For this sundae I used 5 scoops of ice cream. The banana and the first 2 scoops are adhered to the bowl.

This side view gives you a little better look at how it’s put together. Yum! Hugs, Fran

So how do you pronounce Sherbet? I have always said sher-bert, with an “r”! I think that’s incorrect 🙂 But it did give some inspiration for this Karen Burniston Ice Cream Sundae die. Some good comes out of anything! I used her Happy Birthday word die for the front, with ink blending to create the sherbet look.

On the inside we have a pretty, pastel bowl of ice cream – or sherbet. To make the bowl I used vellum. The ice cream is colored with Distressed Oxide inks and covered with glitter.

It sparkles! The little cookies are just strips of Crumb Cake card stock with hand drawn lines. Now I’m hungry! Hugs, Fran

Another sneak peek of a new die from Karen Burniston! This 5 x 5 card uses Happy Birthday on the front – and lots of foil paper which doesn’t photograph very well at all! The paper is the new How Sweet It Is from Stampin Up,

It’s an Ice Cream Sundae on the inside! Isn’t it cute? The movement as it opens is amazing!

The bowl and spoon dies create some really nice embossing. You might also spy some new border dies 🙂 Yep – they’re coming too! Hugs, Fran
