So, I couldn't decide what kind of truck I wanted to create, so I made 3! A Taco Truck, A Cupcake Truck and an Ice Cream Truck! 🙂 I think they'd all make cute birthday or celebration cards!
Above: my Taco Truck featuring some Festive Birthday background paper (pg 173 in the Annual catalog). Image was stamped in Archival Black ink on Watercolor paper and colored with watercolor pencils, Stampin' Write Markers, Blender Pens and an AquaPainter. Scroll down to see the colors used.
Above: my Ice Cream Truck featuring some Tasty Treats ice cream cone background paper (pg 33 in the Occasions catalog). Image was stamped in Archival Black ink on Watercolor paper and colored with watercolor pencils, Stampin' Write Markers, Blender Pens and an AquaPainter. I basically used Black and Melon Mambo on this card.
Above: my Cupcake Truck featuring some Tasty Treats background paper (pg 33 in the Occasions catalog). Image was stamped in Archival Black ink on Watercolor paper and colored with watercolor pencils, Stampin' Write Markers, Blender Pens and an AquaPainter. See photo below to view the colors used.

Stampin' Tip:
Stamp an extra awning from the truck image, color and cut out and paste it over the stamped truck image for a little extra dimension!!
Stampin' Tip:
Color some of the Silver Metallic enamel shapes with a Sharpie for cute glossy hubcaps!
Stampin' Tip:
use the side of your watercolor pencil on the rough side of the watercolor paper to create a fun "ground" effect!
