I was up against a time constraint for this card, and I pulled out my favorite Amy Tangerine On A Whim paper to create a beachy card.
This one was for personal use.

I really wish I could get a version of this ice cream paper with a blue background!
This second card is a note card. And, YES, I have this paper in 2 different sizes – the smaller scale is from a 6 x 6 pad, the larger scale is an individual sheet I purchased separately.
Are you asking, “why ice cream today, Kathy??”
This past weekend, Offspring3 and I went to see “The Color Purple” at The Kennedy Center. It was a lovely show. On the way home, we stopped at our local soft serve stand and ate dessert before dinner! I got the better end of the deal – she bought the tickets & drove (Metro construction zones, rail closures made it too difficult to go on public transportation), I paid for parking and ice cream.
SO…I have had ice cream on my mind!

I stumbled on a sketch challenge that intrigued me last week.
The blog is Freshly Made Sketches, and here is the inspiration:

I used 3 stripes of washi tape because it was so thin. And 2 silhouettes because they were so thin.
Thanks to Freshly Made Sketches for the inspiration!
