How about a rich, deep dark chocolate ice cream cone? Yes, please! There is a waffle cone in the Share a Milkshake Dies that holds several scoops of any flavor ice cream you can come up with! Check mine out ~
Three scoops of Early Espresso dark chocolate ice cream – yum! So if you haven’t yet seen this fun, retro-style bundle, here it is ~

The die in the lower left corner is the waffle cone. It scores the diamond shapes and the folding lines, so it creates a 3-D cone. I love chocolate, so of course that is the first “flavor” I made, but think of the possibilities!
The mocha swirls behind it comes from a sheet of Fancy Flora 6″x 6″ DSP. I cropped the circle out with the large Stylish Shapes Die and glued it to a slightly larger Soft Suede circle.
Materials & Measurements:
- Thick Basic White Cardstock base, 11″x 4-1/4″, scored and folded at 5-1/2″
- Soft Suede Cardstock layer, 5-1/4″x 4″
- Day At The Farm Designer Series Paper, 5″x 3-3/4″
- Soft Suede Cardstock circle, 3-1/4″
- Fancy Flora DSP, Stylish Shapes circle die, 3″
- Ice Cream Cone: Crumb Cake waffle cone, Early Espresso (3) ice cream scoops, Polished Pink cherry
- Sentiment banner: Shimmery White Cardstock, 3″x 1/2″, stamped with “Celebrate” from Framed Florets Stamp Set in Soft Suede ink
- Ribbon: Burlap Ribbon, approx 9″
- Polished Pink (3) In Color Opal Rounds
You can even top it with whipped cream if you like! It is making my sweet tooth ache! 😆
Final Details and Tips:
- Optional: Before folding and gluing the cone together, brush a little Crumb Cake ink over it with a Blending Brush. It makes the texture in the cone a little more pronounced. The more ink you add, the more the texture will “pop.”
- Hold the waffle cone closed with Glue Dots. Turn the first ice cream layer upside down and glue it into the cone, then layer and glue the next two right side up. Be careful not to glue where the slit is for the cherry to fit into.
- Adhere the cone to the card with Dimensionals.
- Add three In Color Opal Rounds.
- If you do not have a circle die or punch that measures 3-1/4″, try tracing something with a circle bottom – i.e. a bowl or cup – and cut it out with scissors.
- Secure the bow to the card front using Glue Dots.
