Punches are some of the most versatile tools used in scrapbooking. This "Ice Cream Cone" was created by using basic punch shapes to create the cone, ice cream and toppings. Materials: Brown paper or cardstock
Cardstock or paper in a variety of brights or pastels
Cone or triangle punch
Pattern crimper
Flower punch
White cardstock or paper
Red cardstock or paper
Small circular punch
Die-cut bubble punch
Brown paper
Brown chalk and cotton swabs or colored pencils
White gel pen
Glue
- To create the cone, use triangle or cone punch to punch the shape from brown cardstock or paper (figure A).
- Then, roll cone shape through pattern crimper (figure B) to create diamond "cone" pattern on paper's surface. (For best results, insert paper through the back of the crimper.)
- Next, apply chalk with cotton swabs or use colored pencils to shade indentations on the cone. A white gel pen can be used to add highlights.
- Use flower punch to create "ice cream". Simply punch several flowers from several colors of pastel or bright paper or cardstock.
- Cut flower shapes in half to create layered ice cream "scoops". Layer scoops and top with cone shape (figure C).
- Use circular punches and bubble die-cut shapes to top the cone with a "cherry" and "whipped cream" (figure D).
- Affix finished cone to page.
