Truck & Circles

When I started this card yesterday I hadn’t even seen the challenge about circles and was intending this solely for the Mod Squad. This morning I saw the other challenge As You See it and wondered if I could make it fit both. For sure it is okay for the Mod Squad but I’m not 100% certain about the other.

Challenge #213
Mod Squad

Never the less I shall add to both challenges and if it gets eliminated so be it. I did the circles yesterday using one of my Bonnie stencils and distress oxide inks. Left it to dry overnight. This morning I commenced stamping the Penny Black Loads of Love truck but directly on top of the circles made a part of it dull looking so I restamped on a separate piece and coloured it using a combination of Sakura pens, Copics and a pencil. Added some sparkle here and there and also added Liquid glass to the window and headlight for extra shine and dimension. I stamped few tiny snowflakes onto the circles using white pigment ink. Stamped the sentiments, one from the Penny Black set and the other from my mice on ice set by LawnFawn. I fussy cut the entire truck out and adhered it over the top of the original stamping using pop dots. After adding pp to the card front I glued the whole panel on top. Always a bonus is that I actually like this card as it is so bright and cheerful to look at.

  3. This is a bright and cheerful card and those circles are so eye-pleasing. It was a good decision to stamp and colour the truck separately because it really pops now! Thanks for joining us at As You See It Challenges!

  4. I am so pleased you like it. It always interests me to see how a card evolves when I don’t really have a plan in my head.

  5. What a sweet truck and beautifully coloured too – great idea to fussy cut and pop up for extra dimension. The sponged circles make a great background too. Thanks for playing along with our current challenge over at As You See It!
