Summer of Color: Rainbow Sherbet


Here is my first submission to the Summer of Color.  The inspiration was rainbow sherbet.  I struggled initially trying out pastels, water color, colored pencil, and acrylics.  I even experimented in photoshop.  I'm not an artist and felt really intimidated by everyone else's submissions.  I'm going to try to get past that and just enjoy this process.
I ended up using pastels, water color, colored pencil and acrylics to make a mosaic ice cream cone.  I wanted to work more on the title page, but it is what it is.  I'm putting my creations into my new smashbook.
Here's the scanned version for a better view of the detail.

On to next week's inspiration, Mint chocolate chip!
