Truckloads of Love Card with Tina

Hello crafty friends, Tina here featuring the fun and versatile Truckloads of Love stamp and die set! I love that this set can be used for so many occasions throughout the whole year. For my card today, I am creating a sweet Fall scene with the adorable Squirrel Friends! They are busy loading their truck with lots of pumpkins.

Creating a full scene card can be intimidating for me and it helps if I build up my design using shape dies. For my background I cut a panel from white Neenah paper using the new Dotted Diamond cover die in landscape. It gives that extra subtle touch and doesn’t distract from the focal point! I used the outer die of the Frilly Frames Stripes to create the scalloped border.

Next, I cut the two largest of the Stitched Semi Circles dies from the same white card stock. I kept the largest one plain white and inked up the smaller one with Distress Oxides in Antique Linen, Scattered Straw and Saltwater Taffy. After splattering some water droplets for extra interest, I glued both semi circles directly to the white card panel. Then, I adhered this panel to a red card base.

I stamped and die cut all the cute squirrels, truck and pumpkins (Squirrel Friends, Truckloads of Love stamp) and colored them with my Copics. As always, I added some highlights with my white gel pen, it really makes a difference! To complete the scene, I cut and colored the tree and leaves from the Autumn Tree die. This tree is great to use in any of your Fall scene cards!

Finally, I arranged all my images and glued them in place, using foam tape were needed for dimension. The combined sentiment from the Truckloads of Love stamp was stamped onto a small white banner and added to the right upper corner. To embellish the card I sprinkled a few gems from the Chrystal Clear Jewels around the sentiment. 

And that finishes my card for today, I hope you will have fun creating with this amazing new set! Thank you for visiting the blog and happy crafting!
