I think I know two munchkins who will love this card (and another one I will need to make just like it)... my two yr. old grandson and the other that just turned three. They love Thomas the Train and all the other trains that go along with Thomas. They know them all by name and, believe me, there are several. I think their attention span and their memories are much better than mine. :-)
I watercolored a scene and used this adorable train from Mark's Finest Papers set called All Aboard!
I just made my clouds with scissors just by cutting in a cloud shape and watercolored them. The sentiment and crossing signs are from MFP, too.

Here you go again - an awesome card. My son LOVES trains too, so I'll just download yours, copy it and placed it on a card - LOL!! You also showcased this image so well and your hand-made clouds that rise about this easel card is such a fun touch. Just can't say enough about this card. Zee munchkins will love it!!

Very cool - I loved this on your blog when I saw it earlier today. I think the clouds are really special on this awesome card. A double set of train tracks borders the back of our property and shakes our house a little all through the day - I love trains!

This is so creative Benzi. Those clouds look just like puffs of steam coming out of the stack on the train. Love how you did the railroad crossing on the easel card too. This is just darling and will be enjoyed by those train lovin' little ones!
