Go Ducks...

We are so excited in our home town for the University of Oregon Ducks to be playing for the National Championship in Glendale, Arizona on January 10, 2011.  I must confess I am not really a football fan, but to experience the excitement and thrill of my youngest son...he has infected me with a whoop and holler.  And seeing all the designer 'outfits'...err uniforms each week's not bad either.  In honor of the game,  I created a road trip card for the Inspiration Challenge  over on Splitcoast Stampers today.  We were to select from a wide assortment of Don Cherry's Jackets. Of course, when I spied a green and yellow checked jacket, I knew I was in business.  Rubber Soul's VW van and sentiment was perfect to show our school colors. I colored the VWand billboard sign with Copics.

The mountains were created with printer paper that I torn, used glitter glue and Martha Stewart Coarse and Snow glitters.  It has quite alot of dimension and texture.  The beautiful sky is a long hoarded piece of Basic Grey's Mellow paper group.  My dear  'across the street neighbor' gifted me with her stash of this cloud paper.  Thanks neighbor!

Thanks for stopping by today.  Blessing today and always.

Gorgeous; the way you created the mountains....how clever and stunning. A beautiful piece of art; are you going to give this to your son? I think he will be delighted!

Have a wonderful day and stay inside; it's cold here :) !!

Love this non-traditional christmas card. The snowy mountain effect is really effective !
