Camper Bus Unique Wedding Card with Local King Rubber

Today I have for you a card I made for a friend's wedding.  Their wedding reception theme was travel and their cake was a bus just like this!  I really wanted to make a unique personal card for my friends.  I messed up writing on the envy (don't tell) so I stacked a couple of die cuts on top to make it even fancier.


Here's a picture of the actual cake:



I took my time in piecing together the van and gifts.  I wanted all the layers to look realistic.  Here's a look from behind:



A close up of my bus.  The bottom suitcase was cut from a collage sheet from the same paper collection.  I had made a 8.5x11 sheet of scraps and stamped flourishes on them.  I originally made ATC's but when I ran across the scrap I thought it looked like fancy wrapping paper.  I feel the weakest part of the card is my tin can streamers for the back.  I just cut metallic squares and punched tiny holes to tie them up with floss.

Ingredients:
The Paper Loft Shades of Gray
Local King Rubber Stamp and die cut from Summer Vacation
SU sentiment Sassy Salutations
misc heart stamps
Ranger silver embossing powder
Judikins black detail embossing powder
misc floss and velvet charcoal ribbon
Spellbinders label die cut
Tim Holtz packages and bows die cut
Creative Memories sticker (bow)
white and metallic silver card stock

    Very cute card, I love it and I can tell that you took a LOT of time working on this. Great job of covering up your boo boo on the envelope.
