Psst...Here's the Scoop...

Did I get your attention?

I don't really have any juicy news.  But here's a new card.  I have no clue where the inspiration for this card came from.  We've had thunderstorms today (love it!) - very uncharacteristic for the Seattle area.  Maybe that's what led me to using my cloud dies for a double scoop ice cream cone.  It is summer after all.

I made this for the CASual Fridays Let's Strip challenge.  I know what you're thinking.  Let's not go there.  Instead picture me reaching into my drawer that houses pink and red paper scraps.  Oh...the card...here 'tis:



I glued itty bits of assorted pink paper scraps to a piece of cardstock and cut them out with my Memory Box cloud die (same for the double scoop of green polka dot paper).  The cone part is kraft paper that I cut to shape and embossed.  Distress Ink around all the edges and a few strategically placed foam dots finished off my ice cream cone.  A bit of twine and a stamped sentiment and we've got a card!

Thanks for taking a peek.  :)
