Hello and welcome back! It's time for a new color challenge at Sunday Stamps and this one is just perfect for late summer or early fall.
ETA: I'm also joining the current challenge at The Paper Players, which is to use a number on your card, which I did on the license plate of the truck.
I decided to go with a Fall themed card using the SSC colors.
I've had this pickup stamp set for a while and used it on a few cards (if you click on Honey Bee in the Labels section in the right side bar to see other examples). This time I used the new Loads of Fall stamp set to fill the back of the pickup with a load of pumpkins, gourds and a sunflower stalk. The images were all colored with Copic markers then die cut with matching dies.
To add some dimension and allow me to tuck the pumpkins behind the tailgate, a second tailgate was stamped, colored, die cut and added to the truck with foam tape. I kept the background very simply, just ink blending a soft green on a panel of Bristol and adding to the Desert Storm card base. The truck was adhered directly to the panel along with the corn stalk and one of the pumpkins with the second popped up with foam tape. Since I'd stamped "GR8FUL" for the license plate, I thought the thankful die cut sentiment worked well.
As always, I really appreciate your visit! I hope you'll use the link above to see all the fabulous cards by the other DT members and join us for this great color challenge!
