Hi Beth. Just wandering why when I print your free projects the back ground comes out black. Because when I look at the ice cream puzzles it shows a white back ground .
I love your work sheets and projects. Have done quite a few. Love them.
Thanks. BonnieI suggest downloading the printable first. Then print the downloaded copy. Depending on your internet provider sometimes that can happen when printing from an online copy. Enjoy
