I started this card by recycling a page from an old French road map book. I used the LOTV image – Toot Toot – which I coloured with Promarkers. I drew the French flag, coloured it with Promarkers, and added cogs dies from All Occasion Dies. The papers are Nitwits Antibellum. I like to think this guy is enjoying the Mediterranean sunshine, as he drives along with his car roof down.

Another card on which the colours are so well balanced . Even the sea fits in with the colour scheme . The driver must be in Europe as he wouldn’t have the hood down here at the moment .What a good use for those old road maps . Love the cogs in that bronzy paper.
