Happy Stampin' and Scrapin'

Ice Cream Dream

I knew with these pictures of Mason I wanted to use the Ice Cream Dream June Stamp of the Month.  I just think it is so cute.  I also colored in the Ice Cream cones with the Shin Han Markers,  if you have not tried these markers yet, I suggest you do, they are great.  I love them. 

Its a simple layout with no embellishments, I wanted the Ice Cream to be the embellishments.  I also used the Framework Alphabet stamp set for the title and his name. 

There are only a few days left to get this adorable stamp set for only $5.00 with a $50.00 purchase.  You can place your order on my website here
