I don’t know about you, but my latest project always seems to be my absolute favourite … until I move on and make another of course! But I really enjoyed making this card for my friend, Clare – a VW camper van, Stampin’ Up style …

It was for her boyfriend’s birthday, and for his present
Clare has hired a VW camper van for the weekend
– pretty cool huh?

The silver foil sheets from the Stampin’ Up autumn/winter catalogue were perfect for the lights, bumper and mirrors.
I used circle punches for the mirrors, lights and bunting, the rest of the card was cut freehand with my paper snips.
I had a scrap of certainly celery cardstock, which I used for the grass –
it is still available from the clearance rack, while stocks last.

And I thought I’d share some photos of the camper
van cake I made a while back for Rob’s 40th birthday …

This was a normal sized cake compared to my first attempt at a camper van cake.
It still took a while to decorate but it was worth it.
And you may remember a long while back, I posted photos of my baby dresser card
and then photos of the baby – well Rob is this little boy’s dad!
