Aurora Bubblegum and Mint Chocolate

Did a little bit of crafting for some challenges today for the first time this week (been doing lots of DT cards to get ahead ready as I have a final 7000 word assignment due for the course I am doing at the beginning of September and I really need to get started on it!

This first card is for The East Wind's Challenge #12 Beach Theme and I used their newsletter freebie as well - she's so adorable! It is also for Sketch & Stash's Challenge #144 to use the sketch below, Deep Ocean's Challenge #83 to use summer colours (I used ice cream colours for mine), Open Minded Crafting Challenge #16 to use summer food and for A Creative Romance's Challenge Fun in the Sun.
