Valentine Card Using Share a Milkshake

Hello everyone, how are you all doing?

This week I have taken another giant leap on my journey into the crafting world.  I have not only managed to record a video, but to also publish that video on my new You-Tube channel. 

I would love you to check it out at  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClXkmJMrBKs09mwJ6u7Y8Cg.  It's not the worlds best video, but it's a huge start.  I would love for you to join me on this journey by leaving me a comment, a thumbs up, and subscribing.

Since I hit a high with my video I decided to get my craft on and try this weeks Creative Colour Challenges#124, as arranged by Victoria Littlewood of https://vickieloudesigns.blogspot.com


After seeing the colours chosen by Victoria there was a great deal of conversations with regard to it being very much ice-cream orientated.  So I decided there was going to be ice-cream involved somewhere!

To make my card I created a card base using a 10" x 7" piece of card; scored and folded it on the long side at 5".  I then added a piece of white - which I embossed using a crackle embossing folder (none Stampin' Up!), but it was the only folder I had which was 5 x 7.  

I then created a panel, using the large die from Let's Go Fishing, from Flirty Flamingo card.  To give the panel a little more interest, I ink blended around the edges using Crumb Cake ink.   

I created ice-cream cones using share a milkshake dies, lemon lolly, very vanilla, and crumb cake card stock.   To get the shine on the hearts I used an old technique of covering the cardstock with clear sticky tape.  I think you can really see the shine on the picture below.



I hope you all like my card, and will give it a go.   

Remember if you would like a catalogue please email me at nuttyhazecrafts@gmail.com, and I will be most delighted to pop one in the post to you.

Happy crafting!
