Welcome to our FOURTH "FRED SHE SAID" blog hop!!! If you just happened to drop by my blog and you are not aware of this wonderful event taking place, please go back to the "FRED SHE SAID" blog here and start your hop!
Please, we would love it if you commented on our posts.
Along the way, please leave a comment on the blogs, follow the instructions at the end of the blog hop, at the Challenge blog, to make your entry and your name will go in for a draw for a $20 Gift Certificate for the Fred She Said Store!
Here is my "Fred She Said" creation:
I used the new old truck set which should be in store today. This one comes uncoloured and there is also pre- coloured versions. I used the un coloured one and paper pieced the truck then coloured the rest with polychromos pencils and oms.
The papers are Stampin Up and Basic Grey and the sheet music is from an old music book.
I am terrible at male cards and really didn't know what to add for embelishments so I ended up raiding my button box and just used some random buttons.
Here's a close up of the truck and my camera is finally working properly again, yay!! I even took this pic inside this morning when there was hardly any light and I didn't use any lamps either!
Here is a list of the blog hoppers in case you lose your way:

Great male card......and your texture on the truck is pretty cool.....thank you for sharing....
Great job on the truck.....it really does look OLD. The texture is the bling that you need on this card
Lora-I love that you paper pieced this truck. I would have never thought to do that...that is a fun way to do a digi. You and I thought of the same type of embellishment. If I could figure out how to make some embossing powder stick on a washer...I would have done that...lol Making envelopes to match the cards are fun. Thanks for the sweet comment on my blog!
