I enjoyed creating these projects using the Ice Cream Swirl Bundle. The large ice cream cone image adds a lot of “WOW” to cards and other projects. The fact the ice cream cone can be a fun shaped card is such a fun option. All the accessories (stamps & dies) add so much to the versatility of this bundle.
