pear tree designs

happy thursday :) i stumbled across a challenge site i thought id share. their theme this week is based on a sketch so be sure to go on over to pear tree designs and check them out :)  its always fun to play along with a challenge.
for my entry i made a guy card  can be used for b/day fathers day , whatever HIS day may be.
for this  the stamped image was stamped and colored by one of my favorite crafty buds robin . i saw a card she made on her blog and HAD to have this image. so i asked if shed stamp and color it for me. i wish you could see this one in person, she used a glaze in the windows and on the tail  light. i could not capture this in my photos but the effect is so cool. she did a fab job and i appreciate her sending these to me.  thank you robin!!! 
the only thing i did to the image was ink around the outer sides with colorbox fluid chalk. again, ALL coloring of the image and the dirt under the truck was done by robin. <~~ click to see her card using the stamp)

Wow, I like this card too! A great "guy" card. Always more difficult for me to come up with something. Great job!
