I have chosen this super cute image for my card this month called Ice Cream Cones

I really enjoyed colouring up this beauty using Copic Markers and complimented the image with a Square Easel Fold Card.  My card was inspired by an youtube tutorial by Gloria Plunkett from DesignzbyGloria that I found recently.

I loved how it folds down flat for mailing and has the lovely square box feature at the front and is super easy to make.
