Sweet Ice Cream Cone Card #1

I was inspired to make an ice cream cone card after visiting a fellow demonstrator's blog last week (thanks Yapha!).  Actually I ended up making two cards similar in design but with different color combinations.  I'll be posting the other card tomorrow so be sure and check back to see that one! 

To make an ice cream cone card, you just need the Pennant Parade stamp set for the cone (which you could even punch out using the coordinating Pennant Builder Punch if you wanted to) and the Cupcake Builder Punch for the scoops and cherry.  For this particular card I added some sprinkles to the Blushing Bride scoop using the Stampin' Write Marker of the same color.  I always love the color combination of Soft Suede and any "pink".  I wanted to add a little message at the bottom of the card and found the word "sweet" in the new stamp set, Sweets for the Sweet.  I was thrilled to discover that it fit perfectly in the Jewelry Tag Punch, too!

Stamps:  Pennant Parade, Sweets for the Sweet
Ink:  Poppy Parade, Crumb Cake, Blushing Bride
Cardstock:  Blushing Bride, Soft Suede, Whisper White
Accessories:  Linen Thread, Ticket Corner Punch, Jewelry Tag Punch, Mat Pack & Paper Piercer, Big Shot, Polka Dot Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, Cupcake Builder Punch, Stampin' Dimensionals
