Vintage Birthday for a Guy

This truck comes from a great Tim Holtz set, the Journey.  The shading is sponged with chalk.  The plaids and button add to the vintage feel.  The plaid DP is from a Karen Foster pad called Gone Fishing,the EF is CB Spots and dots,  and the plaid tape is Recollections.  This will go to a brother in law for his birthday.  I got the picket fence die (Memory Box) from Joan's Gardens.  The circles are cut with Nesties.
