Today, I am sharing a card inspired by a childhood memory of banana ice cream made by my granny. It was such a special treat and so yummy. I have made my card using the Ice Cream Swirl stamp set and dies.
Colours used in this card are:
To recreate the banana ice cream card, you will need:
Lemon Lolly card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Pecan Pie card – 5⅛” by 3⅜”
Basic White card – 5” by 3¼”
Bright & Beautiful dsp – 5¾” by 4”
Pecan Pie card – 7½” by ¼”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
The panel of Bright & Beautiful designer series paper (dsp) was cut in two diagonally giving two triangles. One of these triangles was then adhered to the upper right corner of the Lemon Lolly card front.

The long strip of Pecan Pie card was then glued to the card front, butted up to the piece of dsp.

Using Memento Tuxedo Black ink, I stamped the large swirl of ice cream onto the 5” by 3¼” piece of Basic White card. The cone was added with Pecan Pie ink. I coloured the images with Lemon Lolly, Crumb Cake and Pecan Pie Blends Pens.

The sentiment was stamped onto the decorated panel in Pecan Pie ink and the panel was glued to the Pecan Pie panel. The panel was adhered to the card front on Dimensionals.

The strawberry was stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured using the Poppy Parade and Granny Apple Green Blends. I die cut the image using the Ice Cream Swirl Dies and added it to the card front. I did blend the edge with a Lemon Lolly Blends Pen where the strawberry overlapped the ice cream.
