This is for color challenge 90 to use Thyme, Cranberry and Blush Blossom. I pondered this for a long time and had to turn to the little truck. Are you sick of it yet??!! After painting the truck with Blush Blossom I added some depth by adding a little touch of Crnaberry to shadowing. It really brought the truck to life. I was so surprised at how pretty the trees look in the thyme (not my favorite color) and decided to use the thyme and blush as the main colors and only use cranberry as an accent. I sponged blush for the sky and watercolored it on the road area. I painted white craft on thickly with a small brush and used Winter White EP for the ground area. I used Petal Pushers seeds stamp to stamp with white craft to apply the falling snow and embossed with white detail ep.

No Kittie, I'll never get sick of your little trucks! Each and every one is different and special. These colors work beautifully together. Love that snow and all those presents! TFS!

Omigosh! How did I miss this one? I LOVE it! I'm not overly fond of Blush Blossom but you have used it to make one of the prettiest cards ever! I like how you used the Cranberry Crisp for shading on the truck.
