CPS #229 & cQc#96

Here's this week's CPS sketch:

And ColorQ's color palette:

And the card I created for my hubby:

Close up of PTI's woodgrain embossing plate:

I used my Copics to try to make the stamped RV look sorta like the real one:

And what does the real one look like? Ta-dah!!

After months and months of research, Phillip finally found an RV that he thought was right for us. We wanted to get it in grey, but due to availability and price, we're going with the white. So in a couple of weeks, we'll be camping in our new home away from home :) That's card worthy, right?? Of course it is! I've had this RV set from Inkadinkado for awhile now (his parents have had an RV for years and I had always thought I could use it on a card for them) so I knew I wanted to use it as soon as he decided to get this one. The "blue skies ahead" is also from that set. The postmarks are from a set from Autumn Leaves. The pearls are from Queen and Co. The patterned paper is from K & Company, and the colored cardstock is SU, the grey is from PTI. The chipboard letters I picked up awhile back at a stamp yardsale for a good deal.
