Welcome to Glenda's Cards
It is time for another fun challenge at My Sheri Crafts! Did you know that July is National Ice Cream month! Of course, ice cream is good any month! I am the hostess for this challenge and thought we could have fun with this cold, yummy treat! Our challenge is to use an ice cream cone or dish of ice cream on your card, layout, or 3D project!
My ice cream cone is made using Cricut Project Cartridge Sweet Tooth Boxes. This is one of the fun images on the cartridge that caught my eye and I
just had to buy it several months ago. Would you believe this is my first time to try the ice cream
cone! The ice cream cone is the second image on each row. For best results, the instructions are to cut the images at 9.5" or larger. I used 9.5" and the finished cone stands about 7.5".
Designer paper is Basic Grey Eva Collection pack that I have been hoarding for a long time! I think the paper is too pretty to cut but I did it!
Spellbinders M-Bossabilities Hearts design B is used on the pink ice cream.

Just Rite Stamps- Be Happy Set. Sentiment is stamped with green Martha Stewart ink. Pink trim is from design team sister, Charlotte. I am loving these trims! Green flower is Prima Flowers. Buttons are from the Eva Collection and the green and pink bows are DMC Memory Thread. There is a cut for a cherry to be placed on top of the cone, but I chose to use the button and bow.
Be sure to stop by My Sheri Crafts and see the lovely projects by our guest designer and the talented design team. For more information about the projects, please visit the individual blogs. We appreciate your visits and comments on our blogs!
Now it is your turn to play along with us. We look forward to seeing your ice cream cones/ ice cream dishes. One person will be chosen to be our next guest designer and several Ohh la la awards will be given.

ReplyDeleteGlenda, WOW, your projects this week at MSC is FABULOUS!!! I have that same cartridge, but only have the baby Cricut! You know how tiny mine would be if I would have made one? I guess I wasn't thinking when I bought that cartridge awhile back! :(
