For todays card I started with the sketch at Sketch Saturday and because it was nice and simple I used it for the Less Is More challenge where the theme is 'Life's a beach'. Now to me when I think of the beach I also think of ice-cream so my card was born! The ice-cream company that is local to me here in Devon is called Hocking's and in my opinion is THE BEST ice-cream in the world!! Their van is usually parked at all of the local beaches and you can have your ice-cream with clotted cream on top with a flake - ansome!!
I used the SPRINKLES OF LIFE stamp set for my ice-cream and my chocolate topping is cut from a piece of Early Espresso card and covered in CRYSTAL EFFECTS. The sentiment is sadly retired :-(
Thank you for joining me today and I hope you are getting some sunshine as it is nowhere to be found here!!

Yum is right!!! That looks like my favorite kind of ice cream - black licorice! Thanks so much for joining us at Sketch Saturday this week!
ReplyDeleteGreat interpretation of the theme, there's always ice cream at the beach. Love your unusual colour palette. And being a Devon maid why don't I know about Hockings? I feel some research coming on now!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing with us.
