We All Scream Cone-Gratulations

February 27, 2023

Hello crafty friends, it’s Summer Hills-Painter here. I have had this idea in my head ever since I first saw this Food Truck die being released. I was always a fan of ice cream cones.

Preparation:

Cut a piece of green cardstock using the second largest rectangle from the Stitched Rectangles die. Cut another piece of green cardstock using the stitched die from the Book Box die. Cut a piece of white cardstock using the smaller rectangle from the book box die. Cut a piece of white cardstock measuring 4 1/4″ ” x 5 1/2″. From the Food Truck Accessories, cut and color 2 ice cream scoops and 1 ice cream cone. I light to put post-it tape to the underside of the die cut to hold it in place while I color the objects.

Instructions:
Using the ice cream cone stamp from the stamp set, randomly stamp the ice cream cone on the piece of 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ piece of white cardstock. My white cardstock is alcohol marker safe paper.

Color the ice cream cones using the same color combinations used for the die cut ice cream cone. Once the coloring is completed, die cut the piece using the second largest fitted rectangle die from the Fitted Rectangle die set

Stamp the sentiment from the stamp set to the die cut banner. I like to use the negative to create a template that I can place the banner in and stamp perfectly every time. This time save comes in handy when making multiple sentiment banners. Also, because the stamps are flexible, you can manipulate how the stamp adheres to your stamping platform to follow the curves of the banner.

Adhere the two smaller rectangles together and then adhere the ice cream cone to the layers.

Adhere the res of the layers together and then attach to the card base which is a standard A2 card base.

Fold the banner by following the score lines and adhere to the front of the card. I added a little bit of foam tape to the banner for additional dimension
