This is my DT inspiration for the November Crafts Galore Encore challenge. Our sponsor this month is Beccy’s Place and I got to work with this image from the Road Trip digital stamp set. Since we are now RV’ing, this image spoke to me.

I sized the image for a landscape card in Silhouette Studio and then printed it out onto Canson C’ a Grain Drawing paper and colored it with my Prismacolor colored pencils. I once again took inspiration from a color combo in my new book called Practical Color Combinations. When I had completed the image, I returned the page to the Silhouette to cut it out and also create a shadow for it, which I cut out of brown cardstock.

I had the perfect paper in my stash – a piece of paper with a map on it. The paper pack also had a page with words on it, from which I cut my sentiment. I ran a black marker along the end of the cutout digi and then adhered it to the shadow piece. I added it to the patterned paper panel with foam tape and then added the cardpanel to a cardbase.

I completed the card by adding the strip that I can cut from the paper to make the sentiment.
The Crafts Galore Encore Challenge is a monthly challenge and the theme is always Anything Goes. We look forward to seeing your projects there.

    Hi Monica A great card for the traveler. I look at your map and see Europe, but I don't see Poland there. Is this a card from the partitions when Poland was under the occupation of three countries? It was a very sad period in the history of our country.
    Hugs, BożenA

    A wonderful card, Monica – it looks from the map as if you're heading towards the UK – how good would that be?
    Lovely colouring of your caravan/traveller. I hope the sentiment is exactly what you are currently doing! Thanks for advertising the DT Call. xx
