Digi Choosday - Winnie Starfish and Sandcastles - Ice Creams - with Polkadoodles

Hello everyone and happy Wednesday... I hope that you are having a good week....We're loving being in the summer sunshine here with hot days and lovely warm nights too and what better way to celebrate the Summer than with a yummy ice cream !  The difficult part is always choosing the flavour....

It's that time of the week to share some more inspiration for our current 'Anything Goes' challenge over on the Polkadoodles Digi Choosday Blog so I hope you are going to join in and don't forget the amazing Digi Choosday discount off all crafty printable downloads!  

Our challenges our now 4 weekly so there's loads of time for you to join in and more chances to win too!

The theme set for the DT this week is to create a Ice Cream themed card.

I decided to use a sweet simple image from the  Winnie Starfish and Sandcastles collection - this is a simple Ice Cream digital that i have printed out 5 times and coloured with my promarkers before fussy cutting out.

I created my background by blending distress oxide inks over a panel of card to fit an A7 or 5" x 7" card blank. I used stencils to create my cloudy sky and the ripples of the sea.

Next I used a rectangular die to create a frame, adhering the centre panel direct to the card and then popping up the outer frame with foam tape for dimension.

I added sea foam to the waters edge with a little white gesso on  my finger tip and a white gelly roll pen.

The ice creams were distributed in rainbow order at the bottom of the design in the sand and the sentiment also from the collection was adhered to the top panel after a little ink blending.

To finish off my project I added some sequins around the design 

I hope that you like my card today and you'll enjoy the next cards I share from Polkadoodles.

Hasta luego 👋 

Enjoy the rest of your day !
