You Are So Sweet - Love My Tapes

It's Summer.  For me, that means it's a good time for ice cream.  Well, let's be honest....I eat ice cream all year long.  But for some reason, Summer seems to be the best time to over-indulge on it.  This card was created to celebrate Summer, ice cream, and washi tape from Love My Tapes.  I sure had FUN making it, and you can make lots of fun things with all the wonderful Washi Tape from Love My Tapes.

I started with a brown cardstock base that I cut using the Crimped Frames Die-Cuts from The Greetery.  Next, I laid down strips of the pretty Pink & Yellow Floral Washi Tape and created a second layer for my card base.  The third layer was created by laying down strips of Woodgrain Washi Tape and again using the Crimped Frame Dies to cut it.  The fourth layer is white watercolor paper cut and painted with oxide ink.

I used the Whittle Ice Cream Cone die set from Poppy Stamps to cut the ice cream cones.  The cones are cut from the Woodgrain Washi Tape, and the cones are cut from Pink & Yellow Floral Washi Tape and Blue Arrows Baseball Stripe Washi Tape.  I attached everything with Scor-Tape and then I stamped the sentiment (you are so sweet) using stamps from Paper Sweeties.  The finishing touch is the Tim Holtz miniature paperclip that I attached.  The wonderful Washi Tapes are the real focus of my card.  You can do all sorts of FUN things with Washi Tape, and Love My Tapes has the best selection and best prices on everything washi tape has to offer.

As you probably noticed in my first photo, I also created a matching envelope for this FUN card.  I cut the cone from cork and the ice cream using Pink & Yellow Floral Washi Tape.  I die-cut a circle using the Woodgrain Washi Tape.  It's always a bonus to have a matching envelope for your card.  Using Washi Tape from Love My Tapes makes that easy.  Thanks for stopping by today.  It's always a treat to have you visit me and leave a comment.  Have a blessed and creative week, everyone.
