When I made this card, I used a technique I saw on www.brandyscards.com. She used her paper crimper on the background paper and then used an ink pad to color over the crimped paper. Here's the recipe for my card:
Paper: Recollections
Ice Cream Cone: Cricut Sweet Treats cartridge
Ink: Close to my Heart Lagoon
Sentiment: Close to My Heart Artiste Birthday set
Embossing on cone: Sizzix -Square Lattice embossing folder
Twine: Doodlebug Designs
Skittle on cone: DoubleClick Connections
Enamal Dots: My Mind's Eye Now and Then
Paper Crimper: Fiskars
