Birthday Cone

I'm still having fun with Sweet Ice Cream and the coordinating Ice Cream Cone Builder Punch. Today I included the Ice Cream Corner patterned paper for a sweet birthday card:

My niece's birthday is this week, and I like to make a card for her. This uses a Blackberry Bliss base and then layers of the Ice Cream Corner paper, topped with an ice cream cone.

Doesn't that cone look yummy? I punched the Rainbow Glimmer paper for a double-decker treat - with sprinkles on top! Those are the Ice Cream Corner Sprinkles, and are such fun to add to projects!

And of course, I didn't want to forget the inside!

But you know there is more you can do with the Ice Cream Cone Builder punch:

Who doesn't like a little Disney? Flip your ice cream and you have little Minnies and Mickeys!

Or for a more creepy look:

Sorry, couldn't help myself. When I saw that ice cream, it reminded me of bouffant hair styles of my very early youth (not that I ever wore one, but I clearly remember my cousin's hairstyle!) 😁

Use the smallest oval from Layering Ovals for the face, and a few punched eyes; the lips are one of the tiny hearts from the new Floral Heart dies.

I'm sure I'll continue coming up with ideas for this suite of products! How about you?

Sweet Ice Cream

How about a little Sneak Peek?

Sweet Ice Cream is a new stamp set making an appearance in January when the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog goes live. The Ice Cream Corner Suite of products will be available starting January 5, and are sure to make your happy occasions a bit more fun. Take a look:

Let's take a look at the new products from this suite...

First up, the Sweet Ice Cream stamp set.

Now for this card, I only used the Happy Birthday greeting. What? How did I get that ice cream cone?

Well, the Ice Cream Corner patterned paper has lots of ways to make cones - there's a piece that looks like a waffle cone (see the cone on my card) and some with "splotches" of color just waiting to be punched out in addition to sheets of ice cream cones, popsicles and pretty patterns.

Wait, back up...did I say "punch"? YES! This bundle includes the Ice Cream Cone Builder Punch, just perfect for making those fabulous cones!

Then come the embellishments - the Blackberry Bliss Striped Ribbon and the Ice Cream Corner Sprinkles, both of which are on this card.

So now to the card:

It's a shaker card! How fun!

I started with a Bermuda Bay Stitched So Sweetly die cut, and cut out the center. A piece of Window Sheet was adhered to the back, along with Adhesive Foam Strips all the way around. I cut a piece of the "sprinkled" patterned paper to size, added some of the sprinkles and adhered the frame.

The striped paper is also from the DSP package, and I snipped three strips of the Blackberry Bliss ribbon for under the frame.

This is bound to make someone's birthday a little extra happy, don't you think?

The Ice Cream Corner suite will be available January 5th. Need a new Mini Catalog? They've already been mailed to my current customers, but if you don't have a demonstrator, I'd love to send you copy. Contact me to find out how you can get one for free!
