Hi there!
I'm so thrilled to be part of Altenew's 2nd anniversary blog hop!
I still remember when Altenew burst onto the stamping scene, and they have quickly become one of the hot companies - their style is so innovative and graphic, and it's been a pleasure to watch them continue to churn out amazing designs over the last 2 years!
I made 2 cards using the adorable set, Way Too Sweet:
For my first card, I did a little no-line coloring on the ice cream cones and colored them in fun, sherbet tones.
Once everything was colored, I inked up the entire background (ice cream cones included) with a soft brown ink, and then flicked on some of that same ink over-top. The sentiment was stamped in a crisp black ink.
I turned the cones on their heads for my second card - literally! I stamped the ice-cream cones upside down, but wiped off the ink from what would have been the top of the ice-cream. Then, I drew the melting ice-cream bottoms and faces. They look like little snowmen, haha.
I hope you like my card!
