A Spinning Ice Cream Card | Lawn Fawn

Hi everyone!

The other day, I was driving home from work behind a local ice cream truck and I suddenly wanted to eat ice cream.  Granted, I love ice cream.  I know it's not something you can eat EVERYDAY... and technically it's not the healthiest treat, but every now and then... ice cream makes everything better, right?  So, I picked up a pint of the yummiest Sea Salt Cream & Cookies ice cream from McConnell's a local Santa Barbara ice cream shop that opened a store in LA.  I actually purchased this pint at Whole Foods on my way home from work.

I decided to make a card that was inspired by McConnell's iconic black and red packaging:
