Jewel Rainbow Ice Cream Cones

I am linking this card for the Rainbow challenge over at CAS-ology this week and the SSS Monday challenge J is for..jeweled colours, in my case.  ETA I am also linking this to the Fusion Beach House themed challenge going on right now...Thanks Darnell!  Ice cream at the beach house sounds good!  Oh wait...I don't have a beach house.
Let me explain...  
I have a confession.  I have never made a rainbow anything.  I would have to say that not all of the primary colours are at the top of my list.
Forgive me Ardyth!  I do love the variations of the rainbow colours and I decided to just get over it and use jewel-like versions to create and participate in the challenges.  I had the idea to use a small summery image and found this Basic Grey ice cream cone that had never been used.  The whole set is a NBUS and now an element from the set has seen some action!
I started by masking of two sections of my card front with Washi Tape and stamped the sugar cone part with PTI Vintage Linen.  The Washi Tape sectioning produces a nice straight stamping.  I then moved the Washi Tape strips up over the sugar cones and stamped the ice cream parts in SU Vanilla craft ink.  After that was dry, I took out my Sakura sparkle pens and added the (jeweled) ROYGBIV colours onto the rolled sprinkles part.  I also touched up the ice cream scoops with some white craft ink.  My sentiment is from a SU set and the card front is SU Barely Banana.
So, that's it then, a CAS summery birthday card!  Happy Birthday Jen!
Thanks for taking a peek,

  6. You did a great job with those "sprinkles". So fun! Those may not be colors you work with often, but perhaps you should. They really work for you! Thank you for sharing your work with us this week for the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge. I loved visiting your blog! ~Michelle
