Sweet Wishes

This is my third card of the day! It's been a while since I have done that many in one day. This on is 4 1/2"x6 1/4." I used a dark brown cardstock for the base. The next layer is 1/8" smaller and is a glittery blue cardstock and the final layer is 1/8" smaller and a brown/blue polka dot paper. I used Sweet Shop to cut my three treats: an ice cream cone, a fudgesicle, and a popsicle. All three are cut at 2." The squares are 1 3/4" at their largest. Each layer is 1/8" smaller than the previous layer. I used glossy accents on all my treats and added some pearls for sprinkles on the cone. My mat at the top is 5 3/4"x2" at the largest and each layer is, you guessed it, 1/8" smaller than the previous layer. I wrapped it all with some ribbon and added a bow tied from the same ribbon. The sentiment is Scrappy Moms Stamps and is stamped in coffee bean ink by Tsukineko. I finished off the card with three sets of three pearls across the bottom of the sentiment mat. I am really pleased with how this one turned out! Enjoy!
I made this for the following challenges:
