I have chosen the soon to be retiring Sweet Ice Cream Bundle and Stitched So Sweetly Dies for my project this challenge I felt the green colours would make a great mint ice cream. My favourite!! I love the font of the Happy Birthday sentiment too.

- Cut another piece of Basic White card stock to measure 10cm x 14.3cm for a matt layer
- Cut a piece of the Shimmery White card stock to measure 12cm x 9cm. Wet it with water using your Water Painter then use Polished Pink ink to completely colour the piece. Se aside to dry before die cutting with a Scallop Rectangle from the Stitched So Sweetly Dies
