Dust If Off Sunday - Ice Cream Anyone?

As hot as it is, Ice Cream Sure Sounds Good doesn't it? But too many Weight Watcher Points for sure! LOL

I have been working really hard the past few days on some DT projects - and was behind to getting my Dust It Off Sunday Card done, and figured their had to be a card to two that I have made that hasn't been shown off... and then I remembered this card -

 This is a card I did for a magazine submission a while back. Didn't get picked... they did take the Alota image that made the Cover of Card Maker last month... so I am ok about them not taking this one :0) And now I have a nice summer card to show you today... all worked out!

I used one of the cutest Stampavie Tina Wenke images "Mouse holding Ice Cream" ... ok cute for a stamp image, but if this was real life you would have to get me off the table! A mouse hauling off a ice cream sunday that large would freak me totally! But cute here..... I did  a gate folding card for this card. The papers are Doodlebug "Sweet Treats" - really perfect paper don't you think? I matted with the back side - love two sided papers, they make all the thinking easy. It is all sewn together. And the image is colored with Copics.

Here is the inside. I used a portion of the stamp in the corner. Never had done that before, but I like it!
Same papers inside - all sewn as well.... I doodled the edges of the partial image, and then used a Stamps by Judith Happy Birthday -
 The image on the front I wanted to show up close.... I used dimensional glaze on to give it that wet ice cream look.

Hope you enjoyed my ice cream for today! All the enjoyment and none of the calories! Ok.. not all the enjoyment - - - But fun anyway!

Have a great Sunday - maybe get yourself an Ice Cream Sunday and enjoy it cooling off...
HUGS and-
