Ice Cream Valentine

Happy Valentines Day!!!

Today I am sharing a fun Slim Line card with the Ice Cream Swirl Bundle as a Valentine Card. What could be better than ice cream and your sweetheart? Maybe more ice cream?? LOL!!!

Bundles and Stamps

The star of this card is the Ice Cream Swirl Bundle. I love the ice cream cone! The dies are amazing and so simple to layer. Since my husband likes vanilla ice cream, it was simple to use Basic White for the ice cream. The base is a solid piece with the more swirled look layered on top. It gives a great 3D look to the ice cream. And the cone has definition build into the die. An Easy Peasy layer.

The stamp part of the bundle is on the inside of the card. But I did add another great Valentine set for the front sentiment. The For You is from the Country Bouquet stamp set in the Annual Catalog. I wanted just a small tag for the ice cream cone.

Punches

This card is fairly simple looking but utilized a variety of products. There are two stamp sets and one die set mentioned above. And then I used two separate punches. The sweet hearts are from the Bee Builder Punch. The larger heart is used to punch the bee wings, and the smaller ones are for the antenna. I was thrilled when Stampin’ Up! showed those extra uses for the punch!

The second punch is for the tag. It is the Best Label Punch. This little guy is a favorite for simple little tags like this one. I use it fairly often for sweet and little sentiments. Adding the ribbon may seem a little odd on an ice cream cone. I call that creative license! LOL!!!

Papers

The fun hearts paper is from the Bee Mine Designer pack. Fun but not overly girly. I paired it with Real Red card base and just a layer of Basic White. Of course the hearts are Real Red as well. I consider the hearts as my bling on this card. And I know that is shocking. But I was being conservative.

Measurements

Since this is a slim line that I have not used in a while, I have measurements for you. The card base is 8 1/2 X 7 and scored and folded at 3 1/2. The White layer is 8 1/4 X 3 1/4. I cut two of those, one for front and one for inside. And the DSP is 8 X 3. I hope you will give a slim line a shot!
