31 Days of Crafting - Day Twelve - The Monsters on the Bus (and the Mice!)

Morning everyone!  Today I'm sharing a birthday card I made for one of my nieces. They both LOVE buses and the "Wheels on the Bus" song.  They're also huge fans of the Sesame Street book, The Monsters on the Bus. It's a cute read for grownups, too :D  I added in the Disney because we're all huge Disney fans.

**SUMMER SOIREE IG CARD HOP** Week 9 Road Trip/Summer Celebrations!!

I have several stamps of a camper, but I couldn't find any of them, so I decided to make an ice cream truck card, because who doesn't love ice cream?  I know I celebrate a good ice cream bar everytime I have one 😂. And since the ice cream truck drives around on a ROAD, it fits the theme, right?  Right?
