Have bus pass will travel

Hello crafters!

Today I have another inspiration make for our Country View Challenge held in the Facebook group. This month the theme is "Travel" hosted by Zoe Hillman. 

I have chosen the humble bus for my second trip...


For my background I have used a piece of AALL & Create the Ethereal Expeditions paper (#15) and stencilled the brickwork on top (Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous Mini Stencil Set #28 ). Then I die-cut the background and the matching black mat with AALL & Create Die Set - Climbing Woods (#77).

I die-cut the bus once out of red card and again with mirror and white card pieces to add the details. For the wheels and shadow under the bus I used coloured pencils, for "glass" I used acetate glued from the back. The bus number is peel off stickers.

I used one of the dies in the AALL & Create Die Set Splodazzlers  (#33) to create the silver with a red border circle as a mat for my sentiment.

And since I had the seldom used peel offs out, I added a few stars and balloons, just coz... [must use stuff...]

I had trouble photographing this card due to the reflective surfaces, so here's another look:
