Cuttlebug Ice Cream

Happy Monday everyone.
Hope everyone had a great Easter and weekend!
This week over at the Cuttlebug Spot, Nilda asked her team to create a card that wasn't rectangular or square. So, I pondered this all day and realized I needed a birthday card for one of my best friend's daughter. I was looking up at my carts on top of my new shelves and poof I saw the ice cream cone on the side of the Doodlecharms cart and I had an AH HA moment!
Here is what I came up with......

I welded the cone in Design Studio on shadow and cut it I believe at 7". I cut the cone again on blackout in tan. I ran that layer through the Cuttlebug using the Argyle folder. I cut the cone again and cut the top off and popdotted it to give it dimension over the bottom half. I distressed it a little bit with Tim Holtz Distress Ink. I cut the ice cream part using Glass Slipper Bazzil Bling paper. I then ran it through the cuttlebug using Divine Swirls then used Ice Stickles to trace the swirls to give it a little more shine. I cut the cherry in pink and also ran that through the Cuttlebug using Divine Swirls and stickled it. I had the pink ribbon in my stash and tied a little bow and added a Prima and a skittle to finish it off.
I pretty happy with how it came out and am getting a bit addicted to the shape card. Be sure to head on over to The Cuttlebug Spot and check out the Design Team's cards they are FABULOUS!

Have a great evening!
