Does this make you feel like having a big old' Ice Cream Cone! This is one of the cards that we assembled for the Breast Cancer patients this month….I thought the sentiment was a perfect and uplifting message! I am sure you have seen many versions of this type of card…but this is my take on it!

Not not only is this cute…it is super fun and what a cinch to make! I asked me dear daughter some "color guidance" for this one and she looked at me and said "How many scoops" – after I answered her she looked at me with that priceless look your child can give you and say….."well that a no-brainer"!!!

Vanilla, Chocolate and Strawberry…

Needless to say, I cracked up laughing and  simply said will do!!! So here you go! You know me….trying to think out of the box – with this card you could change up the sentiment for a birthday…a get well…(wouldn't it be perfect for someone getting their tonsils or wisdom teeth out) – you could "tuck in" a gift card….ideas are endless and fun!

Here's the scoop for me to enable you today! Remember, you can click here to order any of these products and also remember that every highlighted product will allow you to see the details of that specific product! Click on the picture (on the edges) to make it BIGGER so you can enjoy the details!

  • The colors of today are….Pool Party, Crumb Cake, Very Vanilla, Strawberry Slush and Chocolate Chip – sounds yummy!!! Oops..real red for the cherry!
  • The "key tool" to making this is the Cupcake Builder! This super fun punch can make soooo make fun ideas…just google it and sit back and enjoy!

  • The "cone" was a simple POP using the Petite Pennants Builder Punch! ( you could also score or use an embossing folder to add textue to your cone…but this was super easy!)
  • The sentiment I choose is a carry-over from last year….and it's a winner. Perfectly Penned has 4 great sentiments that can be used for many cards – The thing I adore about it is how the font is "swirly" …always brings a WOW factor to a card!

  • The other highlight of this card is a simple yet fun and useful Framelit….the Labels Collection…I just LOVE all of the framelits and it is HANDS DOWN a tool that you need! We now have sooooo many of them and they truly make a great and effective accent!
  • Labels Collection Framelits Dies
  • The accent that I realize is an additional step but the end result creates a wow…is using the Paper-Piercing Tool and the Festive Paper-Piercing Pack creates a depth that does make a difference! I know…I know…one more think to do – but just look at the impact it makes!
