 I finally got my card done for John, it took me 4 tries, and if you look closely the bg mat is too short. I messed up lining up the trucks going in the current direction. This was extremely difficult for me. I am not good at cutting angles.

I used my SU circle dies for the sentiment and fussy cut the truck from all the scraps I have...LOL the paper is reversable so it coordinates with the trucks. The trees are Sizzix thinlet trees by Tim Holtz which I've had for a while. The truck should remind him of his Dad's red truck. The boys always wanted to drive it and their Dad would say no...LOL

I tried to make the circle look like a harvest moon, but I did not want it too obvious to take away from the trees and trucks.

Brilliant use of that fold, MaryJo. Great fussy-cutting of the trucks. And I think your harvest moon is just beautiful.

This looks great and lovely papers to make this fun design for your son, just an idea, because you said the bg mat was too short, maybe you could tie twine around that blue on top but that's just an idea, I'm sure your son will love this card made with love by his mother.

I think this turned out great. I like everything you have going on in this scene. Plus thanks for the reminder that I still want to try this fold.

Well, it looks great from here. Love the truck dp and that it has a sentimental meaning for you and John. Those TH trees are a great addition. Great card. Of course, John would love any card you made for him, but this one is pretty darn special. Hugs.

Mary Jo,
Wow, this is very cool! Love all the red trucks and the wonderful die cut trees! That is one of my favorite die cuts for trees!

Have a Great Day, Ann!!
