Instructions: Cut a piece of Ochre Cardstock at 7 1/2 x 7 1/2" and round the corners. Cut a piece of 7 x 7 Green Background Floral Fashionista paper. Ink the edges with the Fern Green ink. Cut a piece of Green cardstock at 2 3/4 x 7" and make a 1/4" slit in it 1/2" from the top.

Stamp 3 Wildwood Cottage grasses with Fern Green ink, color them with the Leaf Green ink and diecut with the coordinating die. Glue 2 on top of the slit, put 3D foam pads on the back on the top and bottom next to the slit, now cut a strip of 7 x 3/4" and lay this behind the slit in between the 3d Foam pads.

Stamp the car from the Simply Classic set with Tuxedo Black and color it with the Lady Bug ink and die cut. Use the Tuxedo Black ink for the wheels, then take a silver marker and make some lines on the wheels and handle for the door and mirror. Color the greenery in the back of the truck with fern Green and a green marker, then put some of the 3D Lacquer on the windows and let it dry. Take very thin slices of cardboard and glue them behind the car on top of each other, then glue them through the slit on the strip so now your car can "Ride". Tape the whole construction down on your card.

Stamp some Coneflowers with Fern Green on white cardstock, color them with the Buttercup and the tops of them with Morocco. Die cut with the Coordinating die and glue them on your base card on top of the Green Construction. Then on the bottom part of the construction, you put another strip down of 7 x 1 1/4" on 3D foam pads, glue some grass down on the back of them.

Take the Nuvo drops and place them on the flowers for more depth, and also in between the grass so that it looks like flowers. Write pull on the end of the strip with a black marker.
