Stressed Spelled Backwards


...is desserts!!!

Hi everyone! Happy Monday!!

Here is a card I made for today's challenge on the There She Goes Blog, TSG33, Layers!!!

I LOVE layers, and I have only made one layer cards twice, maybe three times! I am a layer lover so I was ALL over today's challenge!!

For my card, I started by stamping this SUPER cute ice cream cone from the Ice Cream Mini Set by There She Goes in Memento Tuxedo Black onto Choice Buttercream Cardstock! I LOVE this mini set because you can stamp as many scoops on your cone as you want! I cut out my image with Classic Oval Nestabilities and while the cardstock was in the Nestie, I sponged around the edge with Memento Canteloupe to give it some dimension.

I colored my ice cream cone with Copic Markers and both the strawberry and pistachio scoops (grin!) were coated with Crystal Transparent Glitter by Art Institute Glitter. I used a two glue pen to adhere the glitter as I find I have the most control that way.

My horizontal panel is a piece of the super yummy Farm Fresh paper by October Afternoon, and my Frosted Pink (Prism) panel was run through the Cuttlebug with the Spots and Dots Embossing Folder.

I added some Basic Grey Brads and my sentiment, "Stressed spelled backwards is desserts", was stamped onto Choice Buttercream Cardstock and cut out with the Lots of Labels die from SU! I stamped the cherry from the Ice Cream Mini Set VERY lightly on my sentiment tab in Memento Angel Pink, and they were also stamped on my Frosted Pink panel before it was embossed. I finished off my card with a double ribbon of Pink Pirouette Striped & Chocolate Twill.

You can count my layers...I wound up with 8 on my card altogether!!! Why not play along with the challenge? Create a card using LOTS of layers and when you are done, link your card in Mr. Linky for this challenge at the There She Goes Blog! One lucky winner will receive a $5.00 Gift Certificate to the There She Goes Store! Score!!

Thanks SO much for stopping by!!
