Lawn Fawnatics Challenge #197 - Dies Only

happy Monday!
let's start this week off with a NEW challenge over at the Lawn Fawnatics Challenge blog!

I love pushing myself to use only dies!

and you know me, I couldn't resist making my own little pun to go along with the dies! lol

so fun!
I die cut all of the images with white cardstock using the I Scream, You Scream dies. then I did alllll the ink blending! lol!
I used Picked Raspberry, Dried Marigold and Squeezed Lemonade for the scoops of sherbet. then I used Vintage Photo and Fossilized Amber for the cones. I also backed the smiles and eyes with Black Licorice cardstock

for the background, I used Distress Inks to do ink blending. I started by ink blending the whole background in Blueprint Sketch, Mermaid Lagoon, Peacock Feathers and Cracked Pistachio. then I used the same colors, but with more pressure through the Lots of Stars Background Stencils. I am a sucker for tone-on-tone ink blending! lol!

 

 

I die cut the sentiment with Black Licorice Cardstock using the Henry's ABCs dies.

 
I really can't WAIT for you to play along! you could win a $25 gift certificate to Lawn Fawn!!!!

enjoy!
