Open Road card...

It's me again! I said that I'd been busy at my crafty table!...

Today's make is a more masculine one using Spellbinders Open Road die set...

 I decided to go with a 6x6 inch square card base for this one and created  a circular aperture in a piece of map paper from First Edition Bon Voyage paper pad and added a hand drawn doodle border. I used a cloud stencil to ink the background layer and a strip of pearl grey card embossed with a chevron folder and mat onto dark navy pearl cardstock.

I made up the car die and added a piece of red card behind to cover the apertures, then added the balloons with some string. A couple of die cut clouds, inked with Broken China and a simple stamped sentiment, mat onto brown card, finished with a few grey pearls...

I'm still a little unsure on this one - I feel that it's missing something, so it will probably sit on my desk and have all sorts of stuff tried on it before I give in and leave it alone...but we'll see! 

Thanks for dropping by to see me and guess what?....there's more to come! I'll be back tomorrow with a pretty floral creation, inspired by the cards that I made casing Mindy Farmer's creations...
