chilly chickies

Ohh my goodness, this past weekend went by way to fast. I was busy busy busy, but did manage to make a little card that I had been wanting to make for the on going sketch challenge over on the DeNami blog.

I was excited to use my new love, strawberry freeze iridescent cardstock! Also I am finally using the new ice cream cone that I just hadn't gotten around to pulling out....

I was going to add a little ribbon tab on the side with a colored staple, but changed my mind. I just couldn't resist using those adorable ice cream scooped chickies. I mixed old with new for my background also...decorative borders 1 and the mini cherries. 

Did you notice all of the texture on the cone itself? After fussy cutting it, I ran it through a crimper then added the champagne glitter. Speaking of glitter, did you see how glitter-tastic my cherry is? I have to give credit to Paulina Nakamura for my button treatment. I've seen her layer her buttons and have been waiting for just the right card to come along!! I just love, love, love the effect!

Please leave me a comment and let me know what you think....good or bad....or even better - what would you have done differently??...crafty minds wanna know!
