I had a great time cruising thru Lois' gallery today! So much to choose from. I had never seen TLC222 until today, and I loved what Lois did with it. I used the same layout and changed the stamps and colors. Lois, you really inspired me to try something new!
The inside reads 'Enjoy the Ride' and is from A Muse. This is for a friend that recently retired- and we both have blue pickups, and enjoy conversations about 'who has the best truck'. Lol. Well, he got a brand new pick up for his retirement, so I thought this would be meaningful to him.
The bg is made using SU's Scenic Season, and the truck image is from Printworks. I stamped the truck on Ballet Blue and used an SU marker to make it two tone. The bumper has silver Sharpie and red gems, and the tail lights are from MS Christmas bulb stickers.
The window was cut out and an acetate sheet attached. The tab in the bottom left reads 'Blue Skies Ahead' and is from Inkadinkado. I backed the card with Night of Navy to hide the brads, and made a stand so it is free standing.
Lois, I am coming back for more! I saw at least five more cards I would love to try. You have a great gallery and I am so glad to see you honored here today! Enjoy the ride!
Thanks for looking.

Look away - look away - it the BACKSIDE of a pickup truck!!!! Doesn't your pickup truck wear a skirt or something -because I'm mighty suprised to have to look at that!! Maybe this image should come with a warning - 18+.............just kidding! What a cute card!! Love the SCENE you've created - and the bling tail lights!
That's some pretty fancy photography that you've got going on!!! Now I'd better go tend to my not so happy husband......... he was trying to replace the driveshaft on my car - but something or other is seized up - so now he needs to order a part from Toyota.... he's not a happy camper at the moment!! I'll got tell him there are sunny days ahead......... but not for me...... root canal Tues 3 pm!! ;)

Way to go with that technique, Pat. It was a fun one, wasn't it? You did a great job -- love the truck, and the trees in the background. Thanks so much for playing with me today!
