Welcome to our Create with Stamping Friends Inspiration Monday challenges.  This week’s inspiration challenge is a colorful ice cream cone!  Look at all those flavors!

SNOWY WONDER

So, I kind of went around about way to pulling this card together!  I knew I wanted circles in the background like the scoops of ice cream, but debated on what stamp set to use!  I was thinking ice cream is cold…snow is cold…a snowman…why not use the new Snowy Wonder Bundle?  It worked!

Stampin’ Details:

• The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Basic Beige cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
• Circles were cut with the Spotlight on Nature Dies from Petunia Pop, Granny Apple Green, Pretty in Pink, Early Espresso and Gorgeous Grape and then assembled on a 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic Beige cardstock.
• The smallest two snowflakes from Snowy Wonder stamp set were stamped on the circles using VersaMark Ink (it has been a little bit since I’ve done this tone-on-tone technique!)
• The 1-1/2 x 4 piece of Basic White cardstock was torn across the top and added to the bottom for a ground of snow.  The greeting was stamped with Memento Black Ink towards the left.
• The snowman and hat from Snowy Wonder were stamped with Memento Black Ink and two trees with Granny Apple Green Ink on Basic White cardstock.  They were cut with the Dies.  The trunks were colored with Pecan Pie, the nose colored with Pumpkin Pie, and the shadows around the body with Light Pool Party Stampin’ Blends.  They were added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
• Some White Loose Snowflakes were added to the background circles, the top of the trees, and on his hat!
