Vintage Truck on Route 66

Happy Sunday every... Here is a card I made earlier in the week for Mothermarks Teapot Tuesday challenge - "Are you outta your gourd - I ordered a Ford".

Our destination for our cards this week is Brampton, Ontario - to "Kim" - he is the cousin of fellow Splitcoast Stamper - teapotter "Laurie" (Virigo05) - he was diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer which has spread to his bones and he is only 41 years old. We are hoping our cards will bring a little joy to him. He loves Fords, hockey, football, steaks etc.

As I work at a Ford dealership (Steve Marshall Ford) and Kim is the chairman of Local 584 at the Ford Company I just had to bring Kim a vintage Ford truck. While driving along Route 66 my DH and I stopped at Hackberry General Store and saw this vintage truck parked in front of an old garage. I tried to recreate this scene but omitted all the signs from the garage so that the old truck would stand out. I hand drew the garage and I quite pleased with how it turned out.

Thanks for stopping by,

Happy Stamping and Creating,

Hugs.. Pat

HAPPY BIRTHDAY COWBOY

Hello out there.... Here a quick card I made yesterday for two challenges over at SPLITCOAST STAMPERS. One for the Technique challenge #TLC308 - to use silhouette images and the Clean and Simple challenge #CAS102 - was a Sketch.

The cowboy image is from Victorine originals and the sentiment is from Stampin Up - "It"s your Birthday" set. I stamped the cowboy image with SU Basic Brown and clear embossed. I stamped Stampin Up's Sanded backgrounder stamp on the base card. Ran the panel through the Cuttlebug using the Paisley embossing folder. Sponged edges of Kraft card stock. Matted image with brown and black. Image panel is popped up. Tied on the string and card is finished.

Thanks for looking,
Hugs..Pat
