Robyn's challenge to us for this week was to make anything we felt like that reminded us of summertime!
You should have gotten here from Lori's blog. If not, start here at My Pink Stamper's blog!
I give myself a little more "leave" when it comes to ice cream in the summer. You all pretty much know that I am in a condo, but I am also on the top floor and get sun from about 1pm on. So while it's FAB in the winter and we literally turn on our heaters maybe once a year, in the summer it can get a little hot--- and stays hot as there is almost no one with AC in San Francisco. So ice cream or my particular favorite - Frozen Yogurt (adoringly called "FroYo") is my new thing. BUT there aren't any Cricut Cartridges with FroYo on them (Provo Craft are you listening!?! :) :) :)) So ice cream is the next best thing. :)
I made this card using Artful Delight's June Kit and of course My Pink Stamper stamps!
Design notes: I welded these two images on my Gypsy. BUT with Cricut Craft Room coming out, everyone will be able to do it!!! :)
Recipe:
- My Pink Stamper: Sweetest Cupcakes™
- Gyspy™
- Cricut Expression™
- Cartridge: Creative Memories Cheerful Seasons™
- Embossing: D'vine Swirl Emboss Folder™
- Cardstock:
- Paper Trey Ink Vintage Cream
- Patterned Paper:
- Crate Paper: Portrait "Bouquet" (Artful Delight June Kit)
- Crate Paper: Portrait "Something Blue" (Artful Delight June Kit)
- Glossy Accents
- Stickles in Diamond
- i-rock by Imaginisce
- Button and Twine: Paper Trey Ink
Oh, and it's my birthday today. :) Tomorrow I have a pot-luck scheduled with a bunch of friends! :) Hope you all have something fun planned for the weekend!

Happy Birthday Court and AWESOME card! I LOVE the colors! My husband's business has an ice cream stand in it. My husband lovinly makes a 6 hour trip over to Staten Island several times a summer to get the best Fat Free Soft Frozen Yogurt on the East Coast for me (and I guess for all the other women around here who love it too..hehe)! Naturally, Fro Yo is one of my favorite parts of summer! Great choice for your card! Hope you are enjoying your special day!
