Thought I'd share a quick birthday card using the sketch from Simply Stampin Challenge The image is from Countryside (SU) and sentiment from Watercolor Trio (also SU). Pretty CAS as I feel guys just don't like a lot of foo-foo on their cards. I DID color the truck this time (ugh!)......last time I think I just colored the apples but decided to give it a go on coloring this time. Yikes - a lot more practice is needed I'm afraid! I colored it with Prisma's - and it's a little like a work of art - if you stand really far back from it, it actually looks pretty good! LOL!
I'll enter this in the challenges at not only
Simply Stampin Challenge for the sketch, but also
Cards For Men (Happy Birthday) and
Creative Mondays (cards for men).
Thanks for stopping by.............and yes, I know I'm WAY overdue for a Funny Friday - so stay tuned and I'll be back in the morning with that!!!

Great job on the truck! It looks like art from where I'm sitting! You've picked perfect papers and I love the twine.
Great coloring- love the truck image. The DSP is perfect-and I have some so I know what to do with it now!!!
Great guy card Lynn! Love the foo-foo expression too. That is a great image, fab colouring and I like the papers.
Fantastic job on the coloring Lynn! Love your card, it's a perfect masculine one!
Your card looks fine and your coloring is prefect, we are our worst critics. Love this with the blue and CAS, that is my comfy area :) The papers you used with the red is perfect for a guy!

Great papers and layout for your truck load of apples!! What a fabulous masculine birthday design, Lynn!
This is a fabulous masculine card and I agree with you...no little extras for the guys. They don't appreciate that kind of thing! LOL!
I really like this one with that old blue truck! Great coloring and dsp, and I agree with you about the foo-foo! Not required for guys :)
Lynn, I don't think you need more practice. I think the coloring on your whole image is terrific. Love your papers also. Have a wonderful evening.
Lynn, great card and I don't think you need to practice water colouring. The truck looks wonderful and so do the apples. I am sure the male recipient will be honoured with your card. Love the simplicity of your card.
Great card for a guy!!

It's terrific, Lynn. I still say nobody does CAS guy cards better than you! That doesn't mean I'm going to give up on taking that title away from you. :-D Hugs, my friend.
LOL You are just too Funny Lynn! It's a work of art even if you stand real close to it too! I know cause I put my nose up to the computer screen just to make sure! LOL 8-)
This is a Wonderful Guy card! Just Super Lady! Love the Old truck image! Just Fabulous! This one is getting pinned to my Great Masculine Cards board! 8-)

I love images of old trucks, I dont know why :). And this is a beauty.
Great solid looking masculine card Lynn. And the paint job on the truck is just right for a beat up 'ole ute.

From this angle, your truck looks pretty ok to me Lynn. Just love it. The colouring looks fabulous. Yeah... I need to see a Funny Friday card, will pop by later. hugs Sharon x
I think it looks great Lynn - things don't need to look airbrushed to look good and your truck looks like a colour sketch. By the way I love the word 'foo-foo' - that's definitely going into the Vicky Hayes special dictionary!
What are you talking about? THis is colored great!!! Love your grass and I can see the darker shaded areas!!
Nice job :)
Wow, your coloring on the truck is fantastic! Love your paper choices too. Wonderful card for a guy.
This is a great masculine card - and your colouring is fabulous!
Thanks so much for joining us at Simply Stampin' and I hope we see you playing along with us again soon!

Wowsers, this is fantastic Lynn!

LOL! Standing really far back from it-you are so silly! This is awesome from where I'm sitting and I'm pretty close to the screen!!
Love the twine and the papers with your fabulously colored image!! You rocked the man card once again!!
