I made this gift box on my Facebook Live on Wednesday. If you want to see how I made it, here is a link – just click on the image:

I used a sheet of Cinnamon Cider A4 card stock for the box base and a piece of the ICE CREAM CORNER DSP for the top.

The sheet of DSP I used is an amazing representation of a ice cream/waffle cone look.

I made a belly band to secure the box lid in place. I used the birthday greeting again and stamped it using Blackberry Bliss because it coordinates with the new Blackberry Bliss 1cm Striped Ribbon.

Can you guess which die set I used to cut the greeting? (HINT – it’s my favourite)

I have been doing so much fussy cutting recently and I’m getting better at it!

The lid of the gift box has is scattered with lots of fussy cut ice cream cones – some single, some double and some, the elusive triple.

I look at the lid and wonder whether I should add some more. I’m still undecided. What do you think? Should I add some more – fill some spaces?

Here’s another image with the belly band moved.

Should I add some more? Let me know!

Thanks for popping by … happy stamping.

As a kid, it was a treat to have an ice cream cone. I remember the sound of the Mr Whippy van winding its way through our neighbourhood – it was ‘Greensleeves’, which was originally a traditional folk song.

It was amazing to have a double scoop cone! A triple was just a dream.

For this card, I decided to go over the top and create a five scoop cone – YUM!

The five ‘flavours’ I chose were – strawberry, pistachio, chocolate, butterscotch and French vanilla – with sprinkles on the top.

I love this greeting. It is going to be perfect for some Valentine’s Day Cards next month.

The ICE CREAM CORNER SPRINKLES look very cute sprinkled around the greeting.

I used some Stampin’ Write Markers™ to add colour directly to the stamp to achive the multi-coloured sprinkles for the top scoop of ice cream.

A little POLKA DOT TULLE RIBBON bow and wrap around the piece of Bermuda Bay lends another cute element.

I stamped the sprinkles, in Bermuda Bay, on the card insert and envelope front.

I recently mentioned that the Stampin’ Up!® range of Whisper White paper products were no longer available, due to the unfortunate Covid-related closure of the factory that produced them.

Stampin’ Up! has found another quality supplier for the new BASIC WHITE range of paper products – A4 card stock, 12″x 12″ card, envelopes and the rest of the paper family.
