I am so grateful to everyone who is making social distancing possible. Personally, I'm glad I can work from home, and still order stuff online and have it delivered to my home. So, yay US Postal service. They are being threatened, so everyone do your bit and buy stamps!
This week I made 2 thank you cards using newly acquired dies.
I wasn't going to get the Spellbinders' Truckin Through the Seasons die because I already have the Queen & Co truck die. But I'm a subscriber to Spellbinders' Small Die of the Month kit, and this month's die set are add-ons to their truck die. Sure, they can be used alone, but what's the fun in that?
So, with the new truck die (and additional tailgate sentiments), I made a thank you card. I embossed the tree background with a Darice embossing folder, added flowers to the bed of the truck, and, my specialty, rhinestone tail lights.
Then, I made a quickie card using the patterned paper that was lying around on my table. The birds are unbranded, and the "thanks" word is from Lawn Fawn. The birds have the tiniest rhinestone eyes!
Funny thing, I watch a lot of YouTube videos, and several of them are about assembling trucks. There are videos on both the Queen & Co. trucks and the Spellbinders truck. For some reason, no one is using the words "tailgate" or "fender" . Several of the crafters have called the tailgate a license plate, and more than one have referred to fenders as wheel covers. I can't wait to hear what they are going to call the trailer hitch on the bumper.
My dad used to yell at the TV, now I'm yelling at YouTube. Ok, so maybe I have been home alone too long. I'm not going anywhere and YouTube can't hear me.
