Ice Cream and Ice Cream Colours

Here are the cards I created for my challenge this week which is to use Ice Cream or Ice Cream Colours - I chose to use both.
The background card is from a Hunkydory kit over which is layered the main image. This was created on a piece of chipboard using the new Eco Green paints, Clamshell, Waterfall and Peony.  I painted them on the board then dabbed them over with a plastic bag to get the texture and to mix the paints.  I then stamped with Archival inks the sundaes and messages, both bought in New York at The Ink Pad stamp shop - they are from A Muse  Artstamps Seattle.  I then polished the boards and yes they do look shiny in real life just as Julia said they would.  I love them and am afraid I need more lol. Hope you enjoy your icy treats today.

Second workshop project

A nice messy work of art here. The background is actually on a white card swirled with Distress inks then overstamped with water on the stamps to remove colour instead of add it. The trees were then overstamped with Black Archival inks over the top of the faded image and highlighted with white pen and Cosmic Shimmer glitter glues. The moon was created in the same way and again highlighted with white and sparkles. The whole background was then sprayed with water adding droplets then removing with a soft towel to get the snowy effects. The swirl was stamped and embossed with silver then the edges rubbed with Black Soot Distress ink to create the vingette look. This still needs matting and layering to make a complete card. I love the effects created this way.

CRAFT WORKSHOP MEDALLION CARD

Went to a craft demo last night at my local craft shop and it turned out to be a workshop instead. So I made this card using the new Medallion stamps, Archival inks, nesties, clear embossing and sparkly glitters. The papers are from Papermania - a lovely set of 200 for a ridiculously low price and really black and white, sometimes black paper is more dark grey but these were jet black. I ended up helping folks who had not stamped before but all in all had a good evening.
