I'm on my way to the Farmer's Market, but I can't pass by a Flea Market! There are so many fun treasures. I'll have to be quick though, because my truck is packed with flowers and produce from my garden.
I embossed the cream panel and highlighted with chalk. I used colored pencils and Gamsol to color the truck, fussy cut then chalked the edges to make it stand out against the bg. Adhered the trim and popped up the truck with dimensional tape. It felt like something was missing, so I added a couple of rows of flags. TFL

I had to laugh when I read that after all you did, you felt something was missing! Wow, wow, wow Miss Carla, I love every inch of this. The truck colouring and fussy cutting and chalking is brilliant. The flags are a bonus wow-factor my friend. Any Teapoter would love to receive this.

What a fun card..I love all the flowers in the back of your truck! And those flags did the trick...they're the perfect addition to your flea/farmer's market. Wish you lived closer..we could go scavenging together...bet we'd find some cool stuff!
