Did you know that National Ice Cream Day is on July 16th and Lollipop Day is July 20th?!! Well, you do now!! In honor of those two yummy holidays, CAS-ual Fridays is celebrating this week by challenging you to create a clean and simple project that incorporates sweets and treats such as ice cream, candy, cakes, cupcakes, cookies, and any other delicious goodies that you can think of. How fun is that?!!
This week’s sponsor is PSA Essentials, a super fun company that has some of the cutest stamps with switchable centers that you’ve ever seen! They’ve got some other cutie patootie stuff, too, so you really need to check them out HERE. PSA Essentials is offering up an amazingly generous prize, one of our biggest prize packages to date, to this week’s TGIF Winner, so head on over to the CAS-ual Fridays Challenge Blog to see what it is, and to peruse the amazing eye candy that the other Girl Fridays have for you!
I had a blast with this challenge, mostly because it gave me a chance to play with some delicious new W Plus 9 stamps and dies that just happened to show up in my mail box a few weeks ago. How convenient, right?!! I’ve listed the products I used to create this week’s project below.
STAMPS: W PLUS 9 (Pile It On)
INK: A MUSE STUDIO (Toffee Pigment Ink), FRESH INK (Mango, Fuschia, Pink Lemonade and Chocolate Pigment Ink)
PAPER: PAPERTREY INK (Raspberry Fizz CS), NEENAH CLASSIC CREST (Ultra Smooth Solar White CS)
ACCESSORIES: W PLUS 9 (Pile It On Designer Dies), PAPERTREY INK (Sunshine Impression Plate and Summer Sunrise Polka Dot Satin Ribbon), SAKURA (Quickie Glue Pen), STAMPIN’ UP! (Stampin’ Dimensionals and Dazzling Diamonds), SPELLBINDERS (Classic and Scalloped Rectangle Nestabilities)
That’s it for me today, kids! I cannot wait to see what you all come up with for this week’s CAS-ual Fridays Challenge – I hope you have as much fun with it as I did!! Thanks so much for stopping by – your kind words and comments keep a perma-smile on my face! Have a great day!!
