Description
Hi Everyone...Thank You!...for another Great! Product Challenge...

I recently spent almost the entire Month of August 2024...in the local hospital here where I live...due to several life-threatening consequences...from what was supposed to be a ONE Day Gall Bladder Surgery...During that time,my Birthday came on August 11th...and I was still in the hospital then...So,I wasn't able to celebrate my Birthday at all,as I was then on an all liquid diet...So,No Cake Or Ice Cream for me...It was a hard day either way...So,now I am home for now...And now able to at least eat some kind of Ice Cream...My diet is very restrictive as it is...so Ice Cream options are also very limited & expensive...All my food has to be Gluten-Free & Dairy-Free...So,in honor of my Birthday,I purchased some of my Favorite Dipped Mocha Almond Fudge Ice Cream on a stick...So,I tried to take some pictures of myself holding the Ice cream,before I started to eat it...in Mono Mode...with emphasis on the Ice Cream...I actually recolored the Ice Cream...for a more stand-out impact...Hopefully,It worked...and looks alright...I also extracted the Ice Cream bits from the box photo & put 2 copies of the photo...of the original box packaging in my layout...I also used 2 of Rachel's [ Wooden Vintage Bingo Bits ]...to mark the September 22 date [ the day when it actually happened ]...I'm still experimenting on how to use my camera properly...on my new! phone...so,not the best pics...I'm working on that...too...Thank You! for this challenge...

Yes to ice cream. You can do it, dietary changes are a piece of cake. I was grain-free for many years. Now I've settled into gluten-free. Dairy-free is a bit more difficult, almond milk and coconut milk are great alternatives. I've not tried oat or cashew milk. I love your vertical flow, your photos, your word art. And yes, the coloring on the ice cream bar came in loud & clear. Thanks SO MUCH for participating in Rachel's September featured product challenge. And may the rest of 2024 be uneventful for you. You deserve a break! Hugs! :heartlub

This is such a gorgeous way to present such a horrible situation. I love the tower of images and elements. Your word art is the perfect addition! Hope you're feeling better soon.

You definitely deserve some ice cream after all of that. I'm so sorry it was such a rough procedure and am thankful you are home and getting back to scrapping. As a fellow person who is gluten-free and dairy-free, I feel your pain. There are some wonderful dairy-free protein shakes that when mixed with ice and blended make me feel like I'm eating ice cream. I especially love the chocolate ones mixed with PB2 (a peanut butter powder). It tastes so good and is the consistency of a really think slushie!
