Now this truck looks nothing like Grandpa's truck but I thought the red gave it a little Christmas feel. I was hoping to find a bow that I could load into the truck bed but so far I haven't come across anything that will work. I'll keep my eye out. So the image and part of the sentiment come from Beccy's The Long Haul Digital Stamp Set. I added the "on Christmas" in Word. The image is die cut with Spellbinder's Circles Large and backed with Spellbinder's Scalloped Circles Large. The sentiment is die cut with Clear Dollar Stamps' Designer Labels. It's a three piece die set. I used American Craft designer paper in the background and added three gems to the top right. I was really looking for hearts in my stash but everything I had was too big. I am entering these challenges:
- Beccy's Month of Holiday Cards: Day 10 use a non-holiday stamp
- Sketch Saturday: sketch
- Addicted to Stamps and More: anything goes
- Tuesday Throwdown: Fall/Holiday
- Imagine That challenge: anything goes
The snow continues to fall. Tom just came back from a walk looking like a snowman. He said he was watching all the people sliding off the road down the street from us. We are blessed to be able to stay home on days/nights like this. Thanks for stopping by. Have a blessed day!

Donna, this is such a cute card - the perfect sentiment to go with the truck image!
Brilliant use of a non-Christmas stamp Donna, and fabulous inspiration from your little grandson. I really like the way you've layered the different shapes together for the sentiment, it looks fabulous and makes a great embellishment too. Love the striped paper and the awesome red card stock. Well done!
Cheers,
Beccy
Cute Christmas card! I love the little red truck and the traditional Christmas red and green!
