Seize The Birthday - Layer It


Hello peeps, it's time for a new challenge at Seize The Birthday, and our leader Nancy has chosen 'Layer It'.  If you're not sure how to interpret it, she has a few suggestions for you in her intro.

I wanted to use this new-to-me stamp set from Concord & 9th, Here's The Scoop.  I stamped the bowl, cherry and ice cream scoops onto patterned paper, cut them, then layered them onto a linen-look panel which I'd die-cut with a Penny Black die.  I stamped and fussy cut the sentiment for the bowl and layered that on, then layered the whole thing onto my base card.

The ice cream scoop paper has gold veining, which doesn't show up on the photo, and the cherry is glazed, which also doesn't show up on the photo.

Pop on over to the Seize The Birthday blog for some more fabulous inspiration from the team, and from our surprise party guests, Leslie and Nance.

If you don't want to use layering, you can still play along with any birthday-themed project.

Happy stamping!

  1. I Love your card and ice cream equally, Shirley! The ice cream looks like it is marbled which I think is super cool. Wonderful job and I certainly wish that sentiment was true as we eat ice cream at least 6 times a week.

  7. That's a scrumptious card there. All the patterns and linen background give it such great texture and depth. So thrilled to have been a Surprise Party Guest this fortnight with STB.
