INSTRUCTIONS:
1) Cut Pool Party cardstock to 8-1/2" x 5-1/2". Score at 4-1/4" along the 8-1/2" side. Fold on scored line and use a Bone Folder to burnish the fold flat.
2) The Ice Cream Corner Designer Series Paper has three patterns that are multi-coloured watercolor splotches. Punch one of each colour using the scoop part of the Ice Cream Cone Builder Punch. Punch the waffle patterned paper once with the cone part of the punch.
3) Stamp the sprinkle image on each ice cream scoop with the coordinating colour ink: Blackberry Bliss, Terracotta Tile, or Bermuda Bay.
4) Using the Stitched Rectangles dies, die cut the striped Ice Cream Corner Designer Series Paper with the die that measures about 3-3/4" x 5-1/8". Cut Basic White cardstock with the die that measures about 2-5/8" x 4".
5) Stamp the circular splatter design on the center left portion of the Basic White die cut rectangle with Pool Party ink. Stamp the "TREAT yourself" image at the bottom right corner with Blackberry Bliss ink. Stamp the whole greeting, you'll be covering up the "yourself" part later.
6) Build a triple scoop ice cream cone on the left side of the rectangle layer using Stampin' Dimensionals to adhere the ice cream cone and scoops.
7) Use the new Blending Brushes to create an ombre background on the striped paper with Pool Party ink. You can pick up ink directly from the ink pad or use ink refill. Place your striped paper on Grid Paper or a protected surface. Ink the Blending Brush by rubbing it across the ink pad (or ink refill), starting off the edge of the striped paper and then working onto the paper swirl the Blending Brush in circles from the top edge down towards the center. Reink the Blending Brush and repeat. Concentrate more ink at the top and fade it towards the center.
8) Repeat the same steps to create an ombre effect with Pool Party ink on a scrap of Basic White cardstock that is at least 4" x 2". Let the ink dry completely.
9) Stamp the "TREAT yourself" image on the Basic White ombre paper with VersaMark ink. Cover generously with White Stampin Emboss Powder. Tap off excess powder and heat emboss with the Heat Tool.
10) Once cool use Paper Snips to cut around "yourself" leaving a border around the word. Adhere the cut out word over the Blackberry Bliss stamped word with Stampin' Seal or Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
11) Adhere the striped ombre paper to the card front with Stampin' SEAL or Stampin' Dimensionals. Layer the Basic White rectangle onto the card front, offset to the left, with Stampin' Dimensionals. 
TIPS: When using Blending Brushes, start blending in swirling circles off your project and work onto the project. This prevents harsh lines and insures a smooth blended look. Rather than going heavy with the ink add it lightly in layers. This gives you more control and the best results.
