Stamptacular Sunday: It's a Sweet Thing!

Hi! I'm so glad you could join me this week for the Stamptacular Sunday Challenge, this week our challenge was "anything BUT a card". I actually had another project in mind for this but when I saw this adorable girl (CC Designs) and her ice cream cone I just KNEW I had to make an Ice Cream Cone BOX... it's actually a CAKE BOX (I found the template(s) on Split Coast Stampers) and I just added my two scoops (circle nestabilites and then I cut a straight edge and used my Fiskars apron punch)!

I cut my box out and then I ran it carefully through my Cuttlebug and the Swiss Dots Embossing folder...I had to do it a few times, I had to carefully line up my dots, but I'm pretty pleased with the result! I think it would be fun to put little candies in this box...or maybe some sundae toppings...what a sweet little surprise!

I also wanted to remind you that we have a blog prize for a good cause, $275 worth of goodies and you get to help a super nice person, click on the prize picture in the upper right of my blog for all the details...

House update: well, our construction crew didn't show up Thursday OR Friday...so we're a weekend behind, which wouldn't be bad except that my brother is moving across the country and we're his half-way point, so vigilent prayers are being said that I'll have a guest bedroom for him on Thursday when he (his wife and dogs) and the U-Haul show up! What is left is a little drywall sanding, door adjusting and carpet stretching...so.... if you think about it send some good "move in" vibes our way!

Thanks for joining me today...recipe below as usual...
