Trucking Birthday

Today I am sharing the card I made for my eldest grandson’s recent birthday. I cut my card base from Thick Basic White A4 card and trimmed down the front. I sponged the edges of pieces of Country Woods 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper using Early Espresso ink before attaching them to the inside of the card base and the front flap.

I used the piece I cut from the card base to stamp the truck image from the long retired Country Livin’ stamp set using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I used Old Olive, Crumb Cake, Pecan Pie, Light Basic Black, Light Smoky Slate, Gray Granite Stampin’ Blends to colour the image. I stamped “happy birthday” from the Simply Said stamp set below the image using Early Espresso ink.

I attached the stamped panel to Early Espresso card and then the card front. I stamped the boot image from the Country Livin’ stamp set onto the lower right hand corner of a piece of Basic White card using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I coloured the image using Dark Gray Granite and Pecan Pie Stampin’ Blends. The Basic White card is cut to the same size as the front panel. I attached the Basic White card to Early Espresso card and attached it inside the card base so that it is hidden by the stamped panel on the card front. I know that I have used a retired stamp set but I just love how this turned out and it perfectly suits my Grandson.

Bye for now,

Kris
