The My Favorite Things release party was on SCS last night. They have a guest designer contest open until 8pm (EST) on Thursday. It called for a 3D candy holder. I found this truck template on DIY Gift & Craft Packages. The original template was 5 times larger than this. I had to use my calculator and ruler to reduce this to fit on a 12 x 12 piece of summer sun. The animals are paper pieced. A lot of thought for the middle of the night!!
A sure sign I stayed up too late: I put the driver's wheel on the "wrong" side
Recipe:
Stamps: punny farm
Ink: basic black
Paper: summer sun textured, basic black, whisper white, creamy caramel, close to cocoa, pretty in pink, pumpkin pie, ruby red, real red, chocolate chip, basic gray
Accessories: liquid applique, jumbo eyelets, 3/4" circle punch, 1/3" circle punch, 1/4" square punch, 1/4" circle punch, stickles, stampin dimensionals, white taffeta ribbon, black ribbon, 5 in 1 template, 1 1/4" circle punch, cropadile

This is so very cute!! I didn't even notice the steering wheel was on the wrong side! :)
It's not on the wrong side -- it's an English school bus! Cracks me up -- some of your most hilarious and best work. I love it. This is one of those projects that would end up sitting on my shelf (after I ate the candy) and work as inspiration.
