Sweet

I was in a pinch for a 'quick' card for a 5 year old birthday party. I recalled seeing these ice cream cones floating around in blogland so I thought I'd make it work. I'm not loving this card, but I know the recipient will be more interested in the present anyway. LOL I decided to show you, because its easy enough to reproduce and hopefully you'll like your rendition :)
* Use your Scallop Punch to pop out your flavored 'scoops' and cut a portion of the scallops off. Dip your flavors onto a VersaMark pad and sprinkle with Iridescent Ice Embossing Powder. Heat with heating tool to set the sparkle. TIP: If using a lot of glitz, I prefer Iridescent Ice Embossing Powder over Dazzling Diamonds glitter, so I can heat set the sparkle. Although I love Dazzling Diamonds too, with a card like this with a lot of sparkle, I prefer my recipient not be full of glitter when they handle their card :)
* Run a piece of Kraft cardstock through your Big Shot with the Argyle looking Texturz Background Plate. Then cut that into a triangle for your cone. Take a sponge dauber and lightly sweep across the triangle and raised 'texture' with Close to Cocoa. You can also do the edges to add a more dimensional look.
* Ran my Pretty in Pink through the Big Shot with the Polka Dot Texturz Background Plate. Tip: For deeper embossing I add an extra piece of cardstock as a shim to my layers. I've also heard success with misting your cardstock lightly with water before running it through the Big Shot
* Layered on top of a Rose Red card base 5-1/2x8-1/2 scored and folded in half at the side.
* Used my Big Shot to zip out some Rose Red Go Go Boots Alphabet letters.
* Finished it off with a double helping of Certainly Celery and Rose Red 1/4" Grosgrain Ribbon along the side.
