Couldn't decide which toy to take camping, so I just hooked them both up to the old red pick-up truck. Details of how this came about.....
We were to use something with a motor on our card today. I chose the truck and added the boat. I had a scrap piece of w/c paper that wasn't quite big enough to stamp this trio in a straight line. So I stamped them at an angle and decided we were headed up to the mountains. Hopefully the old truck makes it! I have plenty of stories of how the old truck "barely" made it, but I'll share those at another time. Just remind me.
Added the trailer and then thought since we'll probably be by a lake, better take the boat. So added the boat.
The single trees and bunny, who is watching this one truck caravan is from Kittie Kits. The little group of trees is from Clear Dollar Stamps. The little bird is from Rubber Soul and the rest was hand drawn.
All coloring was done with re-inkers except the white shiny parts which is acrylic paint.
Well, hope you like my little traveling scene here....TFL :0)

Cathy, what a great card. I love your mountain expedition. Who needs maps anyway. I think your truck is traveling toward the alps. The driver better watch out for those crazy cylists!

awesome scene, sis. I really think you out did yourself on this one. Rocks, mountain (Rockies I am sure), highway, trees, bird, rabbit....oops where are the clouds!!! That hill and what is being pulled is working hard on that poor truck. must be a dodge with a Cummins diesel engine. GREAT card. tfs.
hugs,

Sweet little bunny and wonderful inventive scene. Throw in a few hairpin bends and then it will feel more like over here . Oh no, better not - too many hairpins and something in your procession would be bound to fall over the edge.
