Good Saturday morning! I have a fun project to share with you today using a newly released Rubbernecker VW Bug from the 2012 Automobile Collection.
It’s a fun and cartoony image so I decided to deck it out with flowered designer paper and create a simple scene around it.
I stamped the image on designer paper using Brilliance Graphite Black ink and embossed it with clear embossing powder. I cut the windows out with craft knife and used a black glaze pen to highlight around the cut areas. I popped the car up on the white background circle using mounting tape.
I die cut a portion of a circle for the grassy area, hand snipped sprigs of grass and attached to the bottom of the base layer. I die cut Leafy Branch using green and colored the brown limbs with a Vintage Photo Distress Marker. I die cut Puffy Clouds out of the background designer paper and a yellow circle for the sun and attached all the elements with rolled glue dots and Glossy Accents to create the scene. I finished by using some of the tiny flowers cut from the Flower Mound die.
Don’t forget to check out all of the 2012 Rubbernecker releases. I hope you have a wonderful weekend. I know I am sure looking forward to it.

Oh how cute! I love it.
Oh, does this bring back memories. I had a Navy VW when my two boys were little and we had so much fun with that car. It truely is the best car I ever had. I love the inlinkz, but can’t seem to get it on my wordpress blog.
Hate to admit it, sometimes, but I lived in the flower power times and drove a VW Bug – actually over the years had 4 of them. Oh what a car! Thanks, Kittie.
This is my *dream* car so you certainly caught my heart with this creation :0)))) The CS is perfect for the Bug along with the artistic clouds floating by.
Have a great weekend & I shall look forward to next weeks’ creations XoXo
WOW! love that car. Learned to drive in a little black beetle. It’s a honey. both your card and the beetle. love it, love it……..hugs
