This image of an old pickup truck was offered as a freebie this week at the DZ Doodles Group over at PCP. The card will be for my Father-in-law, who celebrates the grand age of 86 this June! I am sure he will remember!
I used Tombow markers for the bold bright red of the truck, knowing that I had to refrain from using the bows and flowers that normally adorn my cards. The card itself was stamped and inked, while the layered mat was also dry embossed and distressed, in order to create a masculine concept.
Other challenges entered:
..One Stitch at a Time #17 Celebrations
...Cupcake Craft Challenges #95 One for the Boys
....Incy Wincy Designs #45 One for the Guys
.....A Crafty Little Place #43 One for the Boys
......Cards For Men #12 Father's Day

This is wonderful Joyce! My dad had a big red pickup like this, I think every guy has a go-to truck that they loved for all the hard work that came with it. Wonderful job! Thank you so much for joining us at ACLP this week celebrating the guys in our lives!
