D.Q.

This week So Artful Challenges asks us to use ice cream colors (strawberry, chocolate, and vanilla) in our creations. I thought of my old college spring break pictures I've had sitting on my desk, one where I treated my nieces and nephew to some Dairy Queen.

I liked the spoon on this paper but I knew the paper was too serious.

So I cut the spoon out and added it to pink, brown, and white polka dot paper that reminds me of sprinkles.
I added a pint of brown on my photo mat, journaling block, and with rick rack. I am on a rick rack kick again. The bottom white one is made of fleece so it makes me think of marshmallow.

I've had Laura's Ice Cream sticker for about 4 years and coincidentally just came across it a few weeks ago. (That's my niece's name.) Serendipity.
