The Global Design Project Color Challenge #GDP433 had me in the mood for ice cream…sherbet to be precise!
Can’t you taste the strawberry, lemon and orange? I pulled the Ice Cream Swirl bundle out and chose one of my go-to card sketches for showing off a large image, such as the ice cream cone: The Easel Card!
It was probably by design, and not by accident that the GDP colors were closely tied to one of the #creativechallengesu color combinations for February, too, so I did stamp my sherbet in Sweet Sorbet and added a swirl of the same color.
This is my card when it’s closed, and I embellished it with a few hearts from the Adhesive-Backed Hearts & Flowers pack:
An easel card is easy to make: The card base (Lemon Lolly card stock) is 11″ x 4.25″ and I scored this one at 3″ and 5.5″. Remember to ONLY ADHERE the bottom half of the layer that will stand up to the bottom 3″ of your card base. Add a small element inside that can prop up the easel- in this case I created a fruity donut in the same colors and put it on Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I’ll be using the Ice Cream Swirl bundle for my second 2024 Virtual Card Class in April!
