Last Blog Hop of the VC Rocks Season

Wow, what a summer!  Can't believe it's almost over until next Spring.  A big shout out to the admins & organizers.  Here is the YahooGroup page for VC Rocks.  Here you will find the VC Rocks blog.  You can start at the blog for the beginning & work your way through.  If you came from Stamp with Jane, you're right on track.  Your next stop is Nancy's Fancies.

For this card, I used the following:
  • Countryside stamp set - truck cut with Custom Cutting System from Creative Memories
  • Inks:  Soft Suede
  • Markers:  Pear Pizzazz, Peach Parfait, Poppy Parade with Blender Pen (blender to marker tip - except on inside apple, blender to ink pad)
  • Paper:  In Color Hostess Designer Series Paper in Peach Parfait, Soft Suede, Pear Pizzazz, Whisper White (base paper cut 5.25x10.5, scored at 5.25)
  • Scallop punch
  • Ribbon:  Pear Pizzazz with Bow-Easy
  • Mojo Monday Week 152 layout below

And this is what I came up with:


Think it would be really neat to do a monthly blog hop during the inactive months of VC Rocks. :)
Happy Hopping!

Great card!! I too love fall colors and really think the two are a great match for this stamp set. Makes me think of taking a road trip to an orchard and pick some fresh fruit!

Very cute, Lori! And re your comment on my post asking if you can CASE the page - surely you may - I freehand cut the tree... then stamped in with the Woodgrain stamp we sell - easy and fun :) I also used the Distressing essentials Tea Stain and pad to texture it up a little!

LOVE the truck card - very much!
