Just Add Ink BIG SHOT challenge and Blog Hop


My little girl has just turned 11! I'm amazed at how completely wonderful she is, such a delight and an abundant blessing in our lives!!
SO for such an occasion we needed a special card and for that I like to turn to a challenge to get me inspired!! This week at JAI the challenge is to use your Big Shot. Ummmmmm....... so many things I could make with that........ We are having an ice-cream theme get together with some of her friends Friday night so perhaps an ice-cream card would be the go........

I did a search on line and found this idea HERE, then with some new DSP to play with (Sunshine and Sprinkles available in FEB) this is what I came up with.

I took my inspiration from HERE for the easel card (thanks BRON, such a super clever lady when it comes to these) and then added Hannah's favourite ice cream flavours. Can you guess what they are??


Chocolate, Strawberry and of course Vanilla (especially Mummy's home made vanilla, yummm delicious!)
At the back is an extra piece to write the birthday greeting and to top it off the cherry is from Button Buddies.
When Hannah opened it she said it was the coolest birthday card.... EVER!! Thanks sweetie, it was my pleasure, I had fun making it for you!
Do check out the other awesome ideas, you'll be surprised what cool things you too can make!
