The Ton’s Summer 2016 Release Blog Hop
Hello crafty friends! Here is Mayline’s blog! Thanks for joining me for The Ton Summer 2016 Release Blog Hop! We’ve had an amazing week sharing all of our new stamps with you. All products are now available for purchase in the shop.
For my hop project I created a pair of fun Ice cream cards using The Ton’s Summer 2016 Release stamp sets Sundae Bar stamp set and Minor Stripes BG stamp.
Here is my first card.
To start off, I created a melting effect background using a masking technique on a 4 1/4 by 5 1/2 A2 some white cardstock. For the yellow part, I used a blending technique with Beach Blondie Dye ink.
Then I stamped ice cream images from Sundae Bar stamp set which debuted on Day 3 using Noir Dye Ink, Cosmopolitan Pink Hybrid ink, Coralline Hybrid ink, and Hot Tourmaline Dye ink on separate cardstock.
After that I fussy cut them and adhered ice creams to the background with foam mounting tape. Lastly I stamped a sentiment from Sundae Bar stamp set using Noir Dye Ink.
Here is my second card in the same way that I created the first card.
For the bottom part of background I used new release Minor Stripes BG stamp which debuted on Day 2 with Warm Hazelnut Dye ink. Does it look like an ice cream cone?
Inks for Ice cream I used Lemon Drop Dye, Beach Blondie Dye, Coralline Hybrid, Soft Garnet Dye and Noir Dye Ink. For the sentiment I used Graceful Rose stamp set which debuted on Day 1.
