The truck is paper pieced with a screen printed acetate sheet and attached to the truck with the heart brad 'door handle.' I don't think you can tell in the photo but the hubcaps and bumpers are colored with a silver shimmery gel pen. The sentiment is one stamp so I just omitted with a marker and stamped each word on each cloud.
Thanks for looking

So many creative touches....the zebra folder and print, the knob on the door, the way you did the sentiment, the hub caps...it just goes on and on....fantastic job!

What a cute and fun card! I love that truck with the acetate, and yes! The hubcaps shine. Love the words on the clouds!
