SWEET ICE CREAM - COLORFUL CARDS AND TIPS FOR USING THE ICE CREAM CONE BUILDER PUNCH

 Hi Stampers!

Summertime is here, and time for some yummy frozen treats! This is also the perfect time to create cards using the SWEET ICE CREAM stamp set, and the ICE CREAM CONE BUILDER punch! 

Some of today’s cards are “slim line” cards. There are different measurements for slim line cards. The measurements I use may be a bit different from others, but with a little adjustments the card designs will work just fine on other slim line cards. For mailing I use a #10 (business size) envelope. I purchase the envelopes that do not have the security linings (blue, black, or Gray designs lining the envelopes).

Let’s take a look at the cards:
