Created this birthday card using my scraps, Sweet Treats Cricut cartridge and used the reverse of the new technique from 2011 Summer Online Card Class to ink the non-raised image side of embossing folder.
I'll decorate the inside before using the card.

Did not have an embossing folder to give it the cone texture and thought why not use the MS score board and make the scores every 1/4".
