Road Trip to South Island

                                          The Male Room Challenge #142 - Travel
Hello crafty friends, welcome to another challenge. This time we are looking at travel ideas for masculine cards. Due to Covid-19 restrictions, overseas travel is unlikely to happen in the near future. But a great opportunity to visit what is local. I thought of creating a card drawing of a road trip to the south island, as we have not done this. I thought of summer time road trip travel in our camper van. Here is what I came up with. I dream of having another summer holiday, without Covid-19 of course.
Here is the image for this new challenge.
To create my card, I started by using the Lawn Fawn Large slimline with sliders die. I also incorporated the Lawn Fawn stitched hillside pop up into my card design to stretch the use of my dies. Next, I inked my  panels using twisted citron and evergreen bough distress oxide.
For the sky, I used wilted violet, mermaid lagoon and tumbled glass distress oxides. To create my scene, I also die cut Lawn fawn birch trees, Sunny Studios woodland borders die, and Lawn Fawn Little town hillside add-on.  I also coloured images with my copic markers from different Lawn fawn stamps (car critters, happy trails, crazy antics, and village shops. Then I adhered all my images according to the way I dreamed the road trip/holiday would look like. I also got this sentiment "Never underestimate the therapeutic power of driving and listening to very loud music" from google. 
For the front of the card, I printed a south island map of NZ and die cut an arrow, circle and the words ROAD TRIP using Lawn Fawn Oliver's stitched ABCs and a sticker (almost there). 
For this challenge, we are welcoming Sona as our guest designer. Please give her a warm welcome by leaving some love Likewise, visit the other designers in the team and spread some love. Until next challenge.
I am entering this card to 

Happy crafting and have a great day.
