Peace on Earth has a mood board full of pickup trucks this time. I don't have any stamps or dies but luckily my friend, Loll, came to the rescue and lent me her pickup truck die.
I stamped some trees and a sentiment on the focal panel - my thinking was that the trees represent a "cut your own" tree lot, and the truck has just loaded up its tree. I then assembled the truck from all of the pieces in the die set. I cut the truck body twice to give it more dimension over the wheels. I sketched in the road with a grey pencil to ground the truck.
Here's the mood board from Peace on Earth. Please come and join us with either a card inspired by the mood board or an "anything Christmas" card.
I'm also adding it the Allsorts challenge "Traditional Christmas Colours".
Supplies:
Stamps - Deep Red trees, Art Impression sentiment
Ink - Distress Pine Needles
Paper - white cs, scraps of red, black, brown, green, and silver cs
Size - A2
Accessories - Penny Black Vintage Truck die set
I love it!

ReplyDeleteI love the red truck and the added dimension you have given it, and the trees in the background and the tree in the truck set the scene beautifully Susan, and the pencil shading grounds the truck perfectly. x
