(New Post) Trucking Along with Birthday Wishes!

 Trucking Along With Birthday Wishes!

As soon as I saw the Trucking Along Bundle with the matching Trucking Along Builder Punch I knew I had to have it!!

My Dad has a 1928 Ford Model T Roadster Pickup. I know it's not the same but it's close-ish!! (My husband says not even close! LOL) 🤷 This card is for my dads 86th birthday next month! 


This truck is such a great part of history! 

Directions For Todays Card:

Cut a piece of Thick Basic White Card Stock to 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" and score in half at 4 1/4". This is the card base.

Cut a 3" x 5 1/2" piece of Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper. I just loved the piece with the hearts and Pretty Peacock background!

Cut 2 pieces of the Soft Shimmer Paper to 1/2" x 5 1/2". Attach the strips behind the DSP at the top and bottom. I used Tear And Tape to attach them. 

Wrap some Linen Thread around this panel 2X and tie into a bow on the right side. Then attach this panel to the card front using Dimensionals.

Stamp "Birthday Wishes" from the Sending Smiles Stamp Set using Memento Black Ink onto the bottom right of the card base.

Die cut a Basic White C/S rectangle using the Deckled Rectangle Dies. This rectangle measures 3 1/2" x 2 1/4". 

Using Balmy Blue Ink and a Blending Brush, lightly add some colour to all the edges of the rectangle.


On the bottom of the rectangle stamp the road/shadow lines using Memento Black Ink. 

On some scrap Basic White C/S stamp the truck outline then stamp the wheels using Memento Black Ink. Stamp the truck body using Garden Green Ink. Punch out the truck with the coordinating Trucking Along Punch. Using Dimensionals, attach the truck to the rectangle.

Stamp the gifts outline using Memento Black Ink onto scrap Basic White C/S. Colour the gifts using Stampin' Blends. I used Real Red, Daffodil Delight and Pretty Peacock. Using Paper Snips, cut out the gifts. Use Glue Dots to attach to truck. Add some Wink Of Stella to the gifts.


Attach the rectangle to the card front using Dimensionals and add some Adhesive Backed Sequins Trio to finish it off.

I also stamped a Garden Green truck inside the card and on the envelope so everything coordinates!



I hope you have enjoyed todays card! I love hearing from you, leave me a comment below. 💜
