ICE CREAM CONES

When I was in Des Moines with the other members of our Yahoo group, we shared a lot of stamps that we brought.  I borrowed this stamp from my friend, Lynette.  The stamp is from Repeat Impressions if I am remembering correctly.  This is such a fun card to use for summer birthdays or just "thinking of you" types.

The design is all one stamp.  I stamped this one with Memento Rich Cocoa on white card stock.  Then I stamped it again on three different coordinating papers plus the brown and cut out the pieces.  I like this design best when each of the ice cream treats are done with different designs.

The papers are some I purchased at Archiver's.  It's so fun to be able to work in one of their rooms and then run out and pick out papers that you want right at that  moment.  And if you haven't ever done paper piecing, give it a try because it really give a great look to the designs.

Thank you for stopping by!  Your comments mean a lot to me so tell me what you think.
