STAMPlorations February Sketch Challenge #1

It's my first ever STAMPlorations challenge post that I get to design a card for as a Design Team member! I'm feeling over the moon to be able to share it with you!

STAMPlorations has a ton of different challenges every month (I think like 5 of them!). The really cool thing is, you don't have to have STAMPlorations stamps to participate. You can use whatever products you have aaaand get a chance to win some pretty cool STAMP products, too!

The challenge that I want to tell you about, though, is the bi-weekly sketch challenge #1 for February. 
Here's the lovely sketch we were given:

http://stamplorations.blogspot.com/2015/02/bi-weekly-sketch-challenge-27.html 

Right now, my mind is not able to stray from anything shiny, red, pink, and heart-shaped. Valentines are my jam right now! This card, however, is not filled with jelly, rather it has America's favorite treat - ICE CREAM!

I stamped a big ol' wafflecone bowl of ice cream from the Sugar Rush set and colored it up. 


 For good shiny measure, I used some Twinkling H20s to paint the whipped cream, because whipped cream is glittery, right?

I happen to love the sentiment builders that come with this set and chose to make one that said "You're So Sweet". 



 

So head on over to STAMPlorations and enter your creations! In case you're waffling, we have PRIZES!!
The winner of the challenge gets 3 digi stamps and a guest designer spot in a future sketch challenge

2 Top picks will also get the option to be a guest designer in a future sketch challenge! Wooo!
All winners and top picks will receive a personalized guest designer badge that they can display on their blogs, as well as a STAMPlorations guest designer watermark.

I'm also going to link my card up to the following challenges:

Thanks for popping by! Hope it's a wonderful start to your week!
