Orange Mivvy,,,,,, YUM !! :-)


Hi all :-) It is getting quite hot now and perfect ice lolly weather ,,, and my fave is ,,,, YEP ,,, Orange Mivvy,, ice lolly with ice cream on the inside.. yummy :-)

I am here with a midway reminder of the theme over on the House Mouse and Friends Challenge,,,,

HERE COMES THE SUN

I have just seen the weather on the UK news ,,, hopefully the sun will show up sometime this summer ,,,, :-) Do you still have a hosepipe ban ?? lol :-)

We are sponsored by the lovely Heidi at Simon Says Stamp so a fab $25 voucher on offer this time :-)

SSS_25dollar_voucher

I don’t own this stamp (yet) it is a stamped image from my teamie Christine ,,, thanks xxxx :-) This one is called Brain Freeze and is now sitting in my basket awaiting checkout !! :-)



I coloured with copics and added Rock Candy Distress stickles to the lolly ( it looks real !) and star dust Stickles around the edges. The papers are from Lawn Fawn and I used plain white card coloured with Squeezed Lemonade DI from the Spring Seasonal set for layering. I cut out a sun and parasol on the Silhouette Cameo, have I told you haw FAB that machine is ,,,BRILL !! :-) The button and stripe ribbon are from Crafty Ribbons and I used a little Hero Arts Twine to finish.

I decorated the inside a little bit too, the sentiment is also from Hero Arts.



thanks for looking :-) some of the DT have joined in with this midway reminder so please hop on over to see what they made :-)

Great card Lols, I just love that fun image. Makes me think not of a Mivvi but an Orange Maid. My friends and I used to go to the pictures on a Saturday and we sometimes had an Orange Maid. Might be showing my age here! Thanks for joining us at TG this week.
