Good morning! Another new Create with Connie and Mary challenge today! Wow, these colours are bright ... LOVE them! I was in an ice cream mood and I'd seen all these cute ice cream cones being made with the pennant punch and the cupcake punch. Now, I don't have the cupcake punch so I had to figure out an alternative for the ice cream. I ended up using my 1" circle punch, trimming off a bit of the bottom and rounding out that lower corner. Each scoop was stamped with the same image, different ink and then stacked with a rhinestone on top.

I stamped the background with images from the Extreme Elements stamp set in various inks and configuration. Turned out decent, eh? Hope you like my card today and are inspired to create something new and interesting! Please check out the challenge on the Create with Connie and Mary blog and see what the rest of the DT made too!!

Have a great day :)

This is SOOOOO cool (no pun intended). What a way to use those colours; just fantastic, Renee. Perfect background, love your icecream scoops, and wow - never thought of using Oval All in conjunction with Four Frames. You're just a powerhouse of ideas, my friend. Thanks for always inspiring me!!!

Great use of the Extreme Elements stamp with that ice cream cone. And I would never have thought to use the Four Frames with it - good on' ya!

Me too, my favorite part is the collage background stamping with Extreme Elements. I never would have thought to combine EE with ice cream but it is fabulous! Great job!
