How was your Memorial Day? Mine was great! I slept in a little, got up and did my post stuff. Taylor came over and we had homemade waffles, I got waffle maker yesterday and some mix. I think the next time I will make the batter from scratch. We then ran up to IKEA again and I got a little table and two chairs for outside. Taylor and I used it for dinner to break it in! After that I came inside and made a few cards and then watched a little TV. A very nice day indeed. I also got to speak to Mr. Trent for a bit!
Today I’m over on the SUO Challenges blog for our Sweet Treats challenge. I decided that a birthday card would be a good way to go, I always need those! The card base is Whisper White Card Stock. My strip of paper is a piece of the NEW Envelope Paper. I punched a tag from Whisper White with the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch. My greeting is from the And Many More Stamp Set and is stamped in the NEW Delightful Dijon. It’s adhered to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The stamps for the ice cream cone are from the NEW Sprinkles of Life Photopolymer Stamp Set and are punched out with the NEW Tree Builder Punch. The ice cream is heat embossed in White Stampin’ Emboss Powder on the NEW Mint Macaroon and the cone is heat embossed in Clear Stampin’ Emboss Powder on the NEW Delightful Dijon. The cone is adhered to the tag with SNAIL and the ice cream with Stampin’ Dimensionals. A piece of Whisper White Baker’s Twine is tied through the top and some “Vintage” Frosted Sequins are adhered to the ice cream for a little sparkle! A fun simple card using some new products from the 2015-2016 Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog! I hope that you enjoyed my card for the SUO Challenges Sweet Treats challenge!

Hi Justin,
This is a perfect Summer Card!! Love the colors. I never would have thought to use Dijon but it makes a perfect cone.

Hello Gerri!
Thank you so much! I looked at all the yellows and I thought that it worked the best! Ooh! I’ll bet that you had some fun this evening! 🙂
Crisp and fun!
Thank you Theresa! 🙂
Hey Justin, what a CUTE card! The mint colour looks so pretty with the white 🙂 Glad your Monday off was fun, sounds very relaxing (and way better than being at work!) Your table and chairs will be very handy on those warm summer nights!
Hope your return to work is not too painful… Cheers Justin 🙂 xoxo
By the way, have you heard from Grace lately? She always drops in and I haven’t seen her comment for a little while – I hope she’s ok!?!
Hi there Kelly!
Thanks so much! I love that Mint color! We need one like that! Yes, I did have a good Monday, but then again any day away from work is a good one! I am looking forward to using the table and chairs and being outside! Work wasn’t too bad!Grace is on Vacation but will be back this weekend I believe! I love that we notice when others are gone! She is fine! Thanks for asking! XOXOXO 🙂
