I'LL TAKE ANY FLAVOR....365 CARDS CHALLENGE

Hum I had to think for a minute as to what title I wanted to give this card...I thought about I LIKE ALL FLAVORS....YOUR JUST MY FLAVOR......but I didn't want to sound to FLIMSY...if ya know what I mean...so I stuck with the I'LL TAKE ANY FLAVOR..not that this isn't FLIMSY..oh well.....I couldn't resist not doing this challenge over at 365...the challenge was to use 10 different pattern papers on a card and this ICE CREAM from the ICE CREAM CONE SHAPED CARDS over at the CUTTING CAFE was perfect.. I have always loved this set...so................I used 10 different papers from just about 10 different companies...and the best part about it was that I used up some scraps...YEAH ME....I did enlarge the stamp at all...I just kept on adding more and more layers on top of layers...I then added a bit of Martha Stewart glitter to the edges....be sure to check out the other ladies projects for this challenge...SUPER DUPER CUTE...huge
