Hi everyone, thank you Cindy for a wonderful destination. Karen is a sweetheart and I'm sure her husband is really hating being away from home. But as usually I got ahead of myself. I have a hard time with man cards, but I thought I really did good with and old truck. Had the card all done and went back to get the address and finished reading the rest of the story. You wanted fishing or black and white stripes for the referee thing. But I know your pretty easy on all of the teapotters so I hope my card is ok for Chip.
The stamp is a digi from Fred She Said. Colored with colored pencils. Cut out with a Spellbinder. Sponged the sky before removing from the die. Added some dp and a strip of dp, rhinestones. Did a litte paper piercing. The windows and headlights are covered with Diamond Glaze.
I hope Karen's husband Chip gets tons of happy cards and he recovers quickly so he can go home. My prayers are with them both. TFL
Hugs Linda

Linda this is so sweet and perfectly OK that you did a truck b/c his vehicle is a truck. And this one is in his Clemson orange. I know he will like it.
He will be so surprised when I walk in w/ a basket of cards.
Thank you so much for thinking of him.

Oh, Linda, I LOVE this, and love that wonderful truck digi stamp. I am so glad you finally got to use it, and Karen's husband is sure to enjoy it. Wonderful job coloring, and wonderful masculine card.
