I'm MELTING....

So I live in small town outside of Washington, DC and yesterday we set a big record.  We were the HOTTEST spot in the entire United States!  Yes...that is hot...at one point it felt like 134 outside, and Timbuktu, Mali (in the middle of Sahara Desert) is cooler!!  So with all this heat I had to make something cool, and of course I went with ice cream! It also works perfectly for Fantabulous Cricut's Challenge # 69(please forgive the lighting...)


I have been eyeing these patchwork cards for some time now...I took the dive yesterday and gave it a try!  I love it!!

**Recipe**

A2 size card base
4 different pattern rectangles cut at 2 in x 2.5 in
1 white rectangle cut at 3.5in x 4 in
Ice cream cone cut from Sweet Treats at 3 inches
Rub on from K & Company Sweet Raspberry rub-on's
Add white gel pen stitching
I wanted to use ribbon a little different on this card, so I decided to finish the ends and glue them around the edges.
