Hi All, today I made my card for the July Scrap The Boys Card Challenge. It is a birthday card for my Son-in-Law and I colored the pickup truck to match his real one!
Pickup in Pieces Birthday Card
This month is a sketch challenge and the prize is posted below.
Here is the sketch, and we would love if you would play along with us! Just click here to get there!
I used the pickup truck from Honey Bee Stamps, Little Pickup. I colored it with alcohol markers. I actually stamped two of them, so when I die cut the circles out of the truck sections I didn’t have to worry about overlap.
I mounted the sections of the truck onto grey cardstock circles that I die cut one size up from the truck sections. I then mounted that onto CTMH tone on tone cardstock that was cut about 2/3 of the way down to create two sections. I cut the Happy Birthday using my Elizabeth Craft Design die, cutting it out of two different shades of blue to create a shadow by mounting the lighter layer slightly off-center of the bottom layer. I added this to a white card base and added distressed silver sequins from Close To My Heart and called it done.
