Lewis and Trudy

I do love a good sketch and when I saw the new one at Sweet Sunday I immediately saw the strip at the back as a road!  Think it was maybe because I was looking at this car stamp earlier in the week when I was rooting through my stash.

This is another Eat Cake Graphics stamp:
8016-E Lewis and Trudy's Wild Ride
It's only little, but it's definitely one of my favourites!

Coloured with my watercolour pencils.  I added some Wink of Stella and then some clear gloss to the chrome on the car.  I hadn't intended to add the flowers until I had an incident with my clear gloss that needed covering, but I love how it turned out ... looks like the puppy has his head out the window to sniff the flowers!
I had intended to use a couple of staples to the left of the image, but I've ran out and can't find my refill grrr.  Sentiment from an Alley Way Stamps set.
