Good Morning!
It's the last Monday in July. Summer is flying by!
Hope you have been enjoying it. It's horrendously HOT🔥 here in central NC. Of course it is the south and summer, but I believe we have had more days over 90℉ in the last two months than normal. So, the hubs and I are indulging ourselves "a bit more than usual" into a favorite summer past time --- 🍦ice cream 🍦! So it's a good thing that we also have a treadmill to inside to work that off even when it's too muggy outside.
And on the subject of ice cream🍦...we have a new challenge beginning today at Cupcake Inspirations that just happens to involve just that. So let me share my card and the details...
The Challenge for the next two weeks is Frozen Treats!
We have a sponsor this challenge also:
She has generously given the Design Team a couple of digis to use for this challenge. Today my card features the Chillin Bear Digi . I printed him out, colored him with Copics and then cut a scalloped frame around him. I also added some sprinkles on the ice cream with a white gel pen and silver marker for his sunglasses to keep him extra cool in the scorching heat. 😉
I set him on top of a background created first by inking up some white cardstock in Minted ink (Catherine Pooler Ink) and then added strips of patterned paper from the Sum Sum Summertime pack by Catherine Pooler Designs cut with a strip die cut by Pretty Pink Posh. The sentiment is from Newton's Summer by Newton's Nook. A few sequins (CP Designs) finished off the look.
So, why not come play along with us in this CHILLIN' challenge we have and create a project showcasing "frozen treats" as the main dish!
And just remember...it is OK to eat ice cream for breakfast, lunch or even dinner or all three, once in awhile! 😉🍨🍦
To create my layout I used the sketch challenge at Make The Cards Challenge:
Thank you for visiting my blog and I hope you come back soon!
Ice Cream Blessings!

Hi Nance! This is such a fun card and absolutely warranted to head off this heatwave going on. I definitely feel your pain. Thank you so much for joining us at Make the Cards Challenge and we hope to see you back again tomorrow!
A really cute design - love this little guy!
