Fantabulous Cricut Challenge #280--Celebrating National Ice Cream Month

Welcome back to another Fantabulous Cricut Challenge blog post!  This week we are challenging you to create something in honor of National Ice Cream month!

My card features an ice cream cone cut from the Close to My Heart Artistry cartridge.  The greeting is from "Ice Cream Dream" the June 2015 CTMH stamp of the month.  The patterned paper is from the Florence paper pack.   

I am also entering this card into the Scrappin' 4 Fun challenge called "Quotes/ Sentiments".
