I like you more than ice cream DIY Greeting Card

I was given the adorably sweet “I like you more than Ice Cream” greeting card to create. This project is a great starter project for using the Maker. It is simple, has easy to follow instructions and who doesn’t like having greeting cards on hand?!

The only hiccup that I encountered was the photo showed an envelope liner, but the project did not come with one. I’ve adjusted my instructions to account for that. I did let Cricut know about the missing element, so hopefully they’ll be able to get that fixed.

In addition to the Cricut Maker, you will need:
