Let’s Go Truckin’!

Let’s go truckin’ in this sweet ride! Oh, and pick a few pumpkins while we’re out!

I simply love this old time-y truck and all of the fun stamps that go with it. Did you see my birthday truck a while back? If not, you can see it here.

Today’s card has an autumn feel to it with a bed full of pumpkins and that pumpkin DSP in the background. So fun!

The DSP is part of the new Come To Gather suite. I’ve pulled the green from it to color the truck and layered it with Pool Party over a Pretty Peacock base. The ribbons I used are the reversible Pretty Peacock/Old Olive ribbon and the retired Mini Stripe Lemon Lime Twist, which is nearly the same as Granny Apple Green.

Can you see the window? I used some of that new Glossy Accents on it, over a Light Soft Sea Foam Blend color. It shines like a pane of glass (except it has a bit of sparkle to it, which I love!)

The Blends colors that I used are Light and Dark Old Olive, Light Smoky Slate, Light Basic Black, Granny Apple Green on the pumpkins, and Soft Sea Foam on the window.

Here’s a Note Card-sized version:

What?!!! Doesn’t every girl tie ribbons to the back of her pickup?!!! Lol! On this one, I stamped the pumpkins separately and cut them out for a bit of dimension.

It will be fun to make a card with the Christmas tree in the truck bed, too! If you’re loving this pickup as I do, you might want to click here and add it to your shopping list. One more look ~

  1. For the balloon truck you did before this one what did you use to make the road?
    Was it a stamp?

  2. Karen, love these cards! Love the green color palette especially. Wasn’t interested in this stamp set before but you’ve changed my mind.

  3. Great cards! Love the detail on the window! Miss Jeanie needs this truck to take us apple picking! Lol

  4. The window m makes this card shine! Windows on vehicles usually have a slight green tint so the seafood was a brilliant touch. Fun!

    • Thanks, Chris! I didn’t know about the green tint. It was just the lightest color I have! And it seemed like it was reflecting the color of the truck. It worked! 🙂

  5. What a sweet ride x 2!
