Rainbow Sherbet

Hello Stampers ~ Do you like Rainbow Sherbet?

I hope you had a good week last week and you are ready to tackle the one ahead of you.  Today is a busy day for my.  I have several appointments and a meeting as well as it is preorder day for demos for the new annual catalog.  I have no idea what we will be able to order as we have a limited selection until the catalog goes live for everyone.  There are a few things I have seen others post that I would love to have it they may not be on the preorder.  I am crossing my fingers!

Today is the new challenge at Hand Stamped Sentiments.

When I saw these colors I thought of Sherbet.  So I decided to make my own swirled sherbet using paper.  I began with my large teflon mat and added some ink using my Lemon Lime Twist (new In Color), Daffodil Delight, and Watermelon Wonder ink pads.  I spritzed the ink with some water and then using my watercolor paper I set it down in the ink.  I moved the paper around so that the inks would mix.  I picked up the paper several times and checked the ink.  I added more ink by going back to the mat as needed.  When I was happy with the coverage, I set it aside to dry.  After it was dry I could then punch my scoops and cut my strips.  I stamped the sentiment using Memento Tuxedo Black.  I used a 1 inch circle punch to round the ends.  I stamped the cone with Crumb Cake ink and then fussy cut it out.  I mounted my strips and added my cone to a Basic Black background.  Here is my completed creation.
