Hello there :0)
I'm trying to use some of my older, forgotten dies and after flicking through my Quickutz dies I found this monster truck and an idea was born.....
The fonts are a couple of Sizzix alphabets, I thought the different heights would give the rocky road effect :0)
The stripe on the base card is a happy accident too, having tried to re-stamp a patchy image and not quite lining it up again properly, but I thought it looked quite in keeping with the truck/big tyres theme :0)
I'm also linking this card upto Addicted to CAS 'Masculine' challenge..... and lets face it guys cards are a challenge to make!!!
This card reminds me when we all had a go in a Land Rover on an Off-Road course at a Country Show quite a few years ago now. We were passengers with an experienced driver and it was very 'exhilarating' seeing/feeling the car traversing all sorts of gradients at various angles, but James laughed the whole way round the course, he found being thrown about most amusing. Needless to say wanted to stay on for a second go!!..... as I remember it was all I could do to get my feet on flat ground and let my head catch up with them!!!
Thanks for stopping by :0)

ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous card. I don't know how you come up with such great ideas Jenny, and always original. I hope you won't mind if I copy this idea as I have a similar die and tricky boys to make cards for. I admire you so much for your creativity.
ReplyDeleteThis is another of your brilliant ideas Jenny! James can keep his off-road rides though - I feel dizzy just thinking about it! Vicky x
ReplyDeleteLove your masculine card. I'm always struggling with them...
ReplyDeleteAnother genius card!! Those letters are so cool I thought they were stamped but they're die cuts? That truck is adorable and the tire track peeking out from behind the mat is the perfect finishing touch. Seriously, you are amazing!
ReplyDeleteFABULOUS, love it.
ReplyDeleteSuper cute card!
ReplyDeleteAwesome - such a great boy card!
ReplyDeleteI love this! The best part is the truck climbing all over the sentiment. Too cool! Thanks so much for playing along at ATCAS! xx

Now that is fun!! Both my boys are monster truck fanatics - they had a go on one a few years ago. So clever how you've made the hills out of the 'monster' - the shading on the letters is so perfect :)
