Just Chill.......

Hello everyone: I'm always praying and hoping you and your families are doing well, taking care of yourselves and each other. 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We are in the middle of Summer and one of the things I enjoy more when it's hot outside is a nice, big scoop of Ice Cream, Strawberry is my favorite.
I'm sharing this card with you and a few challenges too.


These yummy ice cream cones are from a 2013 Flourishes stamp set called "Pinwheels and Popsicles". I stamped the images on white card stock with Stazon black ink, colored them with Prismacolor pencils and fussy cut them, I gave the plump cherries twine steams.
The canopy was punched with a retired SU punch called "Word Window", the embossing folder is called "Confetti", the sentiment is from the Flourishes set.
I added some enamel dots and sequences for a little bling.


********************************************************
This is the INSIDE of the card.


The sentiment is from a Power Poppy set called "Short Stacks", the little gift bag from a Flourishes set called "Christmas Borders" (2009).

I'm playing along with the following challenges.

"Ice Cream Day"

Summer or Autumn
I love Autumn for the magnificent colors and crisp days.
But Summer is fun too, now that we are sheltering in place, 
Ice Cream is our reward.

Okay, there you go again! This is so pretty and fun, and I never thought to use the word window punch like that! What a cute scallop it makes! Pretty sure I still have my WW punch, so will have to try this. It makes the most darling awning for your ice cream shop!
