stamps: loads of love from stampin up!
inks: memento ink pad (tuxedo black), archival ink pad (olive), promarkers, copic and sakura micron pen
cardstock: 6x4 landscape kraft card blank, neenah desert sand (for the matt) and red paper from my stash
I stamped the truck into the corner of my matt and coloured it in using my promarkers and copic pens. I then masked off the truck to add the tree in green, using the stamp-a-ma-jig to line it up so it sits inside the truck. following the sketch, I also stamped the message directly onto the matt. to complete the design, I added a freehand border using my sakura micron pen and then matt and layered with red onto the card blank. I think this simple but quirky card works perfectly for a more masculine take on Christmas.

ReplyDeletethankyou for your lovely comment, it was the first stamp set I wanted when I found a random catalogue in the fish shop!! couldn't find out where to buy it given up all hope then many years later I found a su! demo lady at a craft show and she was selling old stock so I bough it straight away ... theres always hope for you to get the old things, you love, one day!!
