Share a Milkshake

Will you share a milkshake and be my Valentine? ❤️  This sweet bundle brings a different take on Valentines! I doubt that putting a milkshake on the front of my Valentine card would have come to mind, but it certainly is fun! Here’s my card ~

The milkshake has kind of a retro vibe to it. I was going for a strawberry ice cream. This turned out darker than anticipated, but I love the bright color! Or would you guess that is whipped cream on top? In that case, I’m way off track. Let’s just say it’s Strawberry Sorbet and a really full glass! 😆

Here’s a look at the whole bundle ~

For a little added sparkle (doesn’t show in the photo) I brushed Wink of Stella on the left side of the glass, the cherry, and the sprinkles on the ice cream. Last, after inserting the straw into the slit, I adhered a wee bit of Dimensional on the back to stabilize it on the card. The Starry Sky layer is also popped up on Dimensionals.

Hmmmm, I suddenly have a craving for Leatherby’s…..

Happy Valentine’s Day!
