I finally got my hands on this truck! Stampin’ Up! introduced the Trucking Along Stamp Set and Punch in Online Exclusives, and it sold out the first day. Who knew it would be so popular? The good news is, the stamp set is available now, and the punch will be available, again, mid October.

The stamp set has two-step stamping, so I stamped the outline of the truck in Memento Black Ink, and colored the truck Daffodil Delight by stamping it. I also added “Farm Fresh,” to the door, one of the many stamps in the set.

Then, I used Stampin’ Blends to color the window Pool Party, the tires Basic Black, and the flowers in Melon Mambo, Shaded Spruce, and Daffodil Delight. After fussy cutting the flowers, they were glued inside the truck bed.

Sunny Thoughts

For the background I used a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″, layered with Coastal Cabana Cardstock, 5 1/8″ X 3 3/8″, layered with Basic White Cardstock, 5″ X 3 3/4″. Prior to gluing, I gave the white layer texture with a Basics 3D Embossing Folder.

Next, I created a stencil with the Dots & Spots Die, and used it to color Basic White Cardstock with a Blending Brush and Coastal Cabana Ink. Then, I used a Patchwork Pieces Die to cut the pattern, and glued just three of the pieces on top of the embossed layer.

The sentiment, “sending you sunny thoughts,” is from the Trucking Along Stamp Set, stamped in Memento Black Ink, and cut with a Sending Die. After attaching the sentiment and truck with Dimensionals, my first Trucking Along card was complete.

I was inspired by TGIF.
