Simon Wednesday Challenge: Summer

What do you think about when hear the word "summer"?

I think about .. summer treats!

From nice cool lemonade by the pool to cold cold ice cream by the park. I love summer treats!

My boyfriend works at an ice cream shop so when I told him "What do you think about when you hear the word summer?" He replied. "Ice Cream because work gets more busy so I have to work more." He made me laugh, and his reply was the inspiration for this card.

For this card, I aimed for a dark background with a light image. As you can tell from the photo, I went for a bit of lightness in the watercoloring of the ice cream.

 This week, I've mainly been working on my photography skills and watercoloring skills. I've created a list on what type of cards I want to make and work on and how I can further my crafting skills. I'm always looking for inspiration in little things.

For this card I used: 

- Lawn Fawn 'Here's the Scoop' Stamp Set

- Bazzil Cardstock in White and Black 

- Assorted Sequins

- Sakura Koi Watercolors 

I hope you enjoyed this card and don't forget to the Simon Wednesday Challenge Blog to see everyone else's creations! Let me know what you think about this card! :)
