As I was finishing this card tonight, I kept having little fits of giggles over this new Rosie's Roadshow trailer.
The first time I saw it on her site, I about fell out of my chair! I was putting an order in that day, and was able to sneak it onto the list before it was too late!
Needing a bit of a "pick me up", I reached for the trailer stamp tonight and made this card for a friend. Rosie's stamps ALWAYS make me happy!
I stamped the images in black StazOn ink, and painted the scene with a water brush and re-inkers. I adhered the matted image to a Memory Box note card using foam adhesive, then added the little sentiment banner.
Clean and Simple. And fresh, fruity colors! What's not to love?
Unless I miss my guess by a mile the card looks very familiar to me Anna, Coinsidence? I think not, we have about gotten all the upgrades done on it now and mom is pleased with the effort. The card is a "copy" of the trailer that Anna used to have, that now belongs to ME! Love, Dad See you soon!

This is SO funny--I can just hear my mother saying this is her best Southern tone! And your watercoloring (as always) is masterful!

I so love this stamp....I have a fifth-wheel and it's hard to find cute stamps like this. You've sure done it justice!

Who cares what the neighbors think? But you and Alan gotta give them LOTS to talk about. Great card and congrats on the new stamp sets from Whipper Snapper. The picture of your Mom is cool. Hope you have a wonderful visit with your folks next month. No time to comment regularly anymore; you're so incredible that all I do is polish the pedestal and I now qualify for the bulk discount on polish - yay!

I love it!! I think I just received that image but since I ordered over $300 worth, I can't really remember;) All of them are adorable! I need to stamp with them though not just look at how cute they are in the boxes!!
