This is for a good friend of ours that helped Steve and I get my Jeep fixed after I ran over a rock the size of a Rottweiler but much more solid. I had a hole in my oil pan and he assisted Steve in getting us back on the trail and then getting the oil pan replaced once we got home.
These are my favorite cards to make, I used brayer technique for the bg and Lovely as a Tree. Added Dollar store wood dp cut liked rocks and cut out the Jeep from Hit the Road, also the little people from Loads of Love. Added hardware and fiber.
Thanks for looking, hope you like it.

HOLY CATS! What's not not love! Lol- Judy this reminded of your story the minute I saw it, and think your friend will get a kick out of it. Geez, the 'rock' ROCKS! Wonderful and rich texture sis! Love it, love you more! Did I mention I love that hardware too? Yep! Awesome! XO

Wow, this is great, love that wood dp, it looks so real. I was going to make a comment, watch out for the oil pan, before I read your story. Hope you got the body wear put on or is that underwear? LOL

I see you and Steve rippin up the country side till you wipe out that boulder!!! The perfect image for this thank you card! Love all the components you used to bring this story all together! Genius! As Sistah Pat said, "What's not to like?" Love it!!! I did the same thing with our hunting jeep a few years back except, rather than driving over a boulder, I drove into the side of a wash (big dip in the middle of no where) and rolled the jeep with 4 of us in it. All that was broke was a hole in the oil pan!!!
