My parents have been unreachable for days now, and I'm going to assume they're camping and just didn't tell me, my sister, my brother, my aunt, my other aunt....or anyone else for that matter.
Dad's probably fishing a mountain lake, and Mom probably has her little vintage crank Singer sewing machine out making all kinds of fun fabric creations! If I could be doing that right now, you can bet I would be!
I used to have a little retro camp trailer like the one on this card (without the TV antennae), but when I moved to Texas Mom and Dad took it up to their house in Washington so they could use it during the summer months. It's the cutest little trailer. Mom made some very cute retro curtains, dish towels, and napkins to coordinate with the turquoise appliances in the trailer. So cute!
Well, if they really are out camping, I hope they're having a GREAT time! But who knows... maybe they've just chosen not to answer the phone for days and DAYS on end. That's not a bad idea either!
Mom & Dad, if you're reading this, you're in TROUBLE! Where have you BEEN!?
I made this card with three A Muse stamps: the car, the trailer, and the sentiment. They're stamped in black Stazon and colored with Prismacolor pencils, then layered onto a Memory Box note card. Pretty quick and easy!
Now that I look at this card again, I'm reminded that I used to have a green canoe when I lived in Oregon! Haa!! This really COULD have been me driving! But my Toyota truck was white, not brown.
And speaking of travel trailers, check out the fun that the Sisters on the Fly girls have, AND their totally fun trailers!! What a HOOT!!

ADORABLE card!! It represents "fun" to me. I hope you have heard from you parents by NOW...it's Sept. 9th.????? Yea, I'm really, really behind in my blog reading. TFS.

the fly sister's trailers are a blast. What fun to decorate them it must be. Ever since my parents got a little camper, they do the same thing..even skipping town on my brother's birthday--which they got in a LOT of trouble for. (ha) Hoping they're fine, but they will need a stern talking to--always worries one when they don't answer, don't tell us when they are going doesn't it.

I am sure your Mom & Dad are fine but doesn't it make you crazy when they don't check in.....we of course would never do that. LOL Cute card & love the Obi-Wan 1954(sister 12) Love the boot! Also your arrow book is adorable.

Anna, your parents need a good spanking!! LOL! I love your card and those trailors are a hoot! VINTAGE trailers.....we would call those *pieces of junk* but now I have a whole new view of them. I want one of those shiny silver bullet ones!! My sister would absolutely DIE if we showed up at her beautiful new Colorado home with one of those! I want to get one, paint it up and just plunk down in her front yard!!! Ack, I'm just cackling thinking about it!

Isn't it funny how parents can do whatever, but as the kid if you went for DAYS without contact, they'd be camped out on your doorstep in no time and it wouldn't be a fun time. Adorable card!!

This is such a cute card! I still don't own any Amuse stamps....You are starting to break me : )
