Hello, this is Chris of
http://scrappin-nanapuddin.blogspot.com. I'm so honored and excited to be a part of the Cricut Fanatics! I have a layout today from the scrapbook I am working on for the outgoing president of Azle Lions Club. The page is from the Azle Library Fall Festival. What I want to show you is how awesome and fun it is to make the snow cones! They look real IRL!
Aren't they awesome!? I used Imagine Yummy cart, the banners, cut at 2.5 inches for the snow cone bases. I tried white but just didn't like it! Not enough color, even sprayed with Glimmer Mist! I cut circles for the "ice" part and embossed with the Cricut cuttlebug folder "tiny bubble". I tried to do one without the embossing and it did make a huge difference in how the snow cone appeared. It didn't look as much like ice! If you look close you can see the tiny bubbles in the background of the pink one. I then covered the top portion of the circle with Glossy Accents and then poured on "Diamond Dust" and let it sit until dry. Then sprayed with Perfect pearls in the "bubblegum" color mixed with water, and the Perfect Pearls in "Blue Raspberry" mixed with water. And let dry. It will be a little sharp due to the diamond dust! but its awesome looking on scrapbook pages!
For the rest of the page, I designed in Cricut Craftroom using:
Cricut Imagine
Cricut Craftroom
Imagine Cart -
Yummy
Imagine Cart -
Best Friends, for the little girls and the balloons
Independence Day - Firetruck cut at 2"
Imagine Cart -
Imagine More for the banner, but I changed the patterns on the banners to patterns on the Imagine
Hopscotch pattern cart
Thanks for looking today! Hope you find a way to use these instructions and make your own fun snow cones or something icy! I don't know about you but we're still boiling here in Fort Worth and my air conditioner is on the fritz! A/c and if you have any questions about the cones, be sure to ask! I'm "scrappin-nanapuddin" on the circle board or contact me at my blog!
