It’s time for a midsummer #bloghop!! Ellen Hutson and Catherine Pooler are having an ice cream social…and there’s a whole bunch of us bringing creativity along for the ride. Go hop along here:
Okay before you see today’s video – lemme tell you it just cracked. me. up. Sometimes I do crack myself up, in all honesty. And I’m such an ice cream fiend that, well, a giant hand reaching down to stop an ice cream truck just seemed appropriate for someone like me!

Catherine Pooler has a “crafting on the go” theme going right now, and while anything beyond the coloring would be tough to do on the run – the truck is GOING, right? Does that fit?? lol!

Here are the colors used…

All that white pen work just seemed to top it all off!

Another super card, Sandy! Love interactive cards and this one is so much fun! Thanks so much for sharing and inspiring our crafting!
Sure love this stamp set, especially the ice cream truck! Thanks for showing us a fun way to use it!
Lovely card and beautiful coloring as always.. thanks for the inspiration..
I love it…so creative and unique! I would love to highjack an ice cream truck also. Give me all the java chip ice cream!
How fun is this card!! Love your thought process, and the card. Amazing. TFS.
Oh my gosh, Sandy! You never cease to amaze me with your creativity and humor. Absolutely love this card!!
What a cute interactive card!
Lovely card.. I loved watching you do the background. I didn’t even notice the trees until I watched and heard you.. everything else was so important.. What a great point.
Love your sense of humor! Yes, the hand is perfect. Thanks for the inspiration! 😀
That hand! It fits me too! Love your card!
Great interactive and fun card Sandy! I love the colouring on the icecream truck, this card brought back good memories.
Thank you so much for showing and have a great week.
What a fun card! I love your background creativity and coloring; I’ve learned so much from watching your videos and find myself being ‘braver’ with my own (novice) backgrounds.
Gulliver’s travel ! The gaint hand reminded me of . I just loved the concept and what to say about the colouring ? Fantastic !
What can we say except – yummy! Love the coloring! Great ice cream truck !
Fabulous scene with awesome coloring! A perfect summer scene!
Great card. I love your videos
What coloring- fabulous! You really put in a lot of work.
Too funny! When I first saw the giant hand I didn’t “get it”, but having watched your video had me smiling. What a great imagination Sandy, not to mention your colouring & background.
Super fun card! I live in a small town with other small towns. 2 towns over a retired gentleman bought an ice cream truck and refurbished it. He has an app and you can request that he come to your neighborhood. The kids around here love it.
Lol!! door Dash for ice cream!
So fun! Love the hand stopping the ice cream truck.
I don’t know what to say other than ‘WOW!’! Amazing card!
Hahaha!!!! On the go, for sure. This is a clever card!
Cute card, Sandy.
Love your coloring. What a cool idea for your card using the arm.
My son and I sure liked watching this video! Love that hand stopping the truck!
I love that fun card, especially after you explained that the hand was stopping the ice cream truck — before that I was a little confused! It cracked me up, too!
Such a fun card! I loved watching you color the background. The trees and sky are wonderful!
Love your fun card Sandy!
Sandy, I love your videos and your coloring. I love your scene!! It’s hilarious!! What a great idea!
Such a cute card. Love how you do your coloring. Your cards are always beautiful.
Clever little card!!! Love it.
Great card. I love this set and have made a few cards with it already.
WOW! Your coloring and making background is always amazing, and I always enjoy your videos. You even don’t need clouds stencil which I have a couple of! lol! But my “wow” today is how you made that ice cream truck to stop, using the fingers of that hand/arm stamp! Great card, as always, Sandy!
Your card is full of fun and you are a coloring expert!
You went way over and above the call of duty with this one. It looks amazing!!!
YES. I would love to catch the ice cream truck!
Such a funny and clever card! Your coloring is amazing and I love the dots on the ice cream truck!
This is hilarious!
Fabulous idea and
great coloring.

Love what you created!
This is such a fun card! I totally get the big hand grabbing the ice cream cone! What a creative idea! I love your sense of humor. Btw, any flavor of Blue Belle ice cream is absolutely delicious! If you haven’t tried it, you should.
Love the creative spin on this card! Gotta try that white chocolate raspberry!
Cutest ice cream truck ever – and that hand! Very clever – and funny! Love this.
Sandy, I always enjoy your videos and the very creative, artistic flair you lend to each of them. LOVE the hand reaching down to stop the ice cream truck–that’s genius! And hilarious! Secretly, I too would like to just reach down and stop the ice cream truck!!! Ha! Thanks for the thinking outside the box, and the coloring and scene building tutorials that you always add as a bonus to your projects. TFS
This is such a cute design!! Cutting the fingers off and gluing them below is so clever. I laughed out loud when the hand caught the ice cream truck!!
How fun! Looking forward to the hop!
Love the humour in this card.
You have such a great sense of humor Sandy. Love this card.
Giant ice cream cone….yes, of course!
LOVE this. Always smitten by your designs.
Incredible coloring! I love how you made the patterns on the ice cream truck! What a great scene!
