Childhood Memories of Ice-cream Trucks

When I was younger, there was nothing better than the sound of the Mr Whippy van to signal that it was summer.  This image brings back a lot of fond memories:

I am entering this card into the following challenges:
PINspirational Challenge - Photo Inspiration

De Creatieve Zebra - Summer and ice-creams

I have used a paper from a Raspberry Road Designs paper pad called "Summer Goodness".  I have also added two diagonal strips of Trendy Tape (similar to Washi Tape).  The image is from Jellypark Friends and very much reminds me of my childhood.  I have coloured with copic markers - I know I used G000, YR000, C3, C5 on the van and E00 for skin but forgot to write down the clothing colours!  I have added some pre-coloured ribbon roses with leaves and two clear heart rhinestones.  I have added some Eucalyptus Stickles to the roses and a smear of it under the hearts.
