Ice Cream Cone Platform Pop Up Card

Not only is it Fun Fold Friday, this is the 6th edition to my monthly series "Platform Pop Up Cards". I added the stamped & die cut 'COOL' to the front, and the ice cream cones are dies by Simon Says Stamp.  The pink puffy pieces are from a SU milkshake set. I stamped the sentiment on a scalloped rectangle and added it to the back with room for a personal message.

Every July I send my kids & brother an ice cream themed card to honour my Mom. When she was a little girl, her Dad (my Grampa) would take her for an ice cream soda after a July parade in their town. She continued the tradition with my brother and I, even though we didn't go to a parade. On a certain day in July we would all go for ice cream. I continued the tradition with our kids, and now our grandkids too. 

When my Dad passed away, I made sure to take Mom for her ice cream or we would deliver it to her on that day. Often our family can't all be together on that day but we all make sure we have ice cream and say CHEERS to my Mom. I have been sending them an ice cream themed card in July for many years as well, and this will be one of the ones I send out this year.

I love how this card folds flat for mailing in a 5 x 7" envelope.

Having been asked how many cards I make I thought it would be fun to keep track this year. Many of my posts include more than a single card or project and below is my tally.
