Tacky Tuesday's Challenge #8

Happy Tuesday! Today marks the beginning of another great challenge over at Tacky Tuesdays! For the challenge this month, you need to use a "cool treat" die cut and the word "sweet" must be used in your sentiment. A cool treat is an ice cream, popsicle, sundae, etc. Here is what I came up with:



All in all, I'm pretty pleased with how my card came out and I think that ice cream cone from doodlecharms is still one of my favorite cuts. My ice cream cone was cut from DoodleCharms at 3.75". For the cone, I just placed it on my scoreboard and scored some lines to give it the look of a real cone. The ice cream was embossed using the D'vine swirls cuttlebug folder and the background was embossed using the Swiss Dots cuttlebug embossing folder. The crinkle ribbon was made for me by my very good friend Kimberly.

Here are the rules to play in this Tacky Tuesday's challenge:

1. Use the cut specified
2. Use the word specified in your sentiment
3. Link to the Tacky Tuesday's Facebook Page before 7/19/2011


To see the rest of the projects the DT came up with be sure to visit Ruthie's blog, September Ninth. That's it! Pretty easy huh? I can't wait to see what you create for the challenge! Have a great crafty day!
