Ice Cream

Good morning to mt crafty friends and  followers I hope that you are all well and have had a great week. My card today is one I have made specifically to enter into Live and  Love Crafts Challenge Ice Cream. I rarely make cards other than DT ones for this reason but just occasionally pop my cards into challenges if they fit the theme. However last year I won two brilliant Paper Nest Dolls stamps in a candy draw over at Tracy Payne's fabulous blog. I keep looking at them but never quite knew how to use them till I saw the challenge Ice Cream and thought perfect. Problem is I'm entering this only a couple of days before the challenge ends as  I've had lots of things on this month and a lot of DT stuff as well but I've made it . So enough of my waffling.
The stamp is called Roller Waitress Avery and  this is what I've made . A bit OTT even by my standards but it is Live and Love Crafts !!

Wow!! I think that's it rather a lot of bits on this one. I loved that glitter heart and the glitter bead stems they reminded me of that lovely glitter sugar topping you get on ice cream sometimes.

Well I hope you all have a fabulous weekend I just wish the weather would improve its been very poor here in the NE so cold for May .Hugs x

  16. Hello again, my new friend! I just realized the post I went to yesterday wasn't your most recent (Google plus tricked me)... what a delight to see this linked up at LLC! Your card is as sweet as the theme. The image is darling and I love the "perfect day" accent. That's my kind of day! :o) The bead stems reminded me of sprinkly-topped sweetness, too, and I love the butterfly border. :o) Such a gorgeous card in every way. Thank you for sharing your beautiful creation with us at Live & Love Crafts!

    Hugs and blessings,
    Karen
