V For Vehicles ~ Alphabet Challenge

Good morning, Its my favorite day of the week... Friday and that means its time for another challenge on 
this week the letter is 
.
"V"
For Vehicles
We had a fantastic response to our DT call.  The Successful applicants will be announced on the challenge blog next Friday 8th April.  Good luck to everyone that entered.

I thought I was going to struggle with this challenge as I don't own anything relating to vehicles, thank heavens for digi's.  A very big THANK YOU to Helen from Ellephantastic for coming up with a gorgeous image at such short notice.  Please go and take a look at the online store for more brilliant images.  
.  (Click on the above link to visit the Ellephantastic store).  


I've had another go at shading the background, I must admit that it does make the images pop off the page.  I have used a glitter gel pen to add the shine to the metal parts of the car. I can just imagine this cute little bear driving along a country road with his picnic hamper in the back ready for a Teddy Bears picnic..LOL
