Life is Better with Ice Cream!

Happy Saturday Everyone!  Julie, here sharing a Mixed Media card designed with Bottle Caps Background, Ice Cream Shoppe and Grunge Elements stamp sets along with ODBD Custom Pierced Rectangles Dies (all available from Our Daily Bread Designs).



The Bottle Caps Background along with the gentlemen and cone images from Ice Cream Shoppe were stamped with archival black ink onto white cardstock, heat set and colored with water based markers.

Micro-glaze was used to protect the coloring on the bottle caps before distress inks and water based inks were used to create the splatter background around the bottle caps.  The large splatter stamp from Grunge Elements was stamped with vintage photo distress ink and picket fence distress ink was used to tone down the color around the caps.

The background layer was also created with vintage photo distress ink along with watermelon and pool party water based inks and the large splatter stamp from Grunge Elements.
Both panels were die cut and embossed with the Pierced Rectangles Dies and mounted onto black cardstock.

The sentiment from Ice Cream Shoppe was heat embossed with white embossing powder onto black cardstock and cut into two pieces.

All were layered onto the card base with dimensional foam and a clear glitter pen was used to add shimmer to the ice cream and bottle caps to finish off the card.

Thanks again for taking the time to stop by! I hope you were inspired today, and if you have a chance to create a project with your Artistic Outpost stamps, we would love for you to share it with us on Artistic Outpost Facebook page!
