Papertrey July 2017 Create Along With Us...


Seeing the new retro station wagon and the Throwback Thursday from a couple weeks ago prompted me to take out my Enjoy The Ride stamps. I don't use this cute stamp set enough! This card, by Betsy Veldman inspired me to make my card!


Since I have a ton of pattern paper, why not start out by using a piece for my background. I thought this would take the place of stamping a sun, because to me the paper looks like sun rays. I die-cut the clouds in white cardstock three times each and stacked and glued them together for dimension.

The car is die-cut in white cardstock, stamped with black ink for the outline and Pure Poppy ink for the car itself. I used a couple grey Copic markers to color in the bumper. The banner is also die-cut in white cardstock and the sentiment stamped in black ink.

Although hard to see in the picture, I placed silver metal dots on the headlights - in person it gives it a shiny look, almost like the lights are on!
