House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge #76


 
 
Welcome to House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge # 76-a photo inspiration challenge.
 
 
 
 
Here is the cute  photo we used for our inspiration!
 
 
 
I chose not take the cupcake route on this challenge, but  instead used the colors for my inspirations because I wanted to use one of my new stamps today! As hot is it has been here this week, I can't help but think of cool ice cream!  Although hard to tell...the main image is on dimensionals as well as the cute little Martha ice cream cones.

I hope you can find time to pop on over and take a peek at all the lovely entries from challenge #75---Vintage ...there were some amazing cards!.... And then join in this week for the fun inspiration picture challenge.

This week's challenge is sponsored by Simon Says Stamp and you could be in the running for a stamp of your choice! Can't beat that! Thanks to Lisa for the challenge choice this week.

Sorry to have been so scarce this last month...this is the time I get to recharge my batteries after harvest and also do some traveling. This week was my class reunion and boy was that fun too!!!

Newsflash:   Stay tuned for some fun surprise creations all next week!!!
