Here is my last card I made for Father's Day. It is for Joe! This stamp set is from SU called Ride With Me! I fell in love with this set. When we first got married we had a gas station, and he purchased this old red truck to use. You could see it coming a mile away! He loved it! He used it for everything and we so enjoyed having it. I remember having to get a boost up later on when I got pregnant with Margaret. I really thought I would have her in the truck the way it bounced all over the place! I can still see him pulling up to the house and the kids running up to him begging to go for a ride! Big Red was with us for many years!
I used Heartfelt Creations CS for the base card. I did some blending first on an oval and then colored and fussy cut the truck out and popped it up for some dimension. I just love this sentiment that is in the stamp set. I used my Spellbinders oval dies to die cut on Real Red CS an oval frame and added some enamel hearts.
For the inside sentiment, I used my $1 Michael's stamp and some more enamel hearts! I just loved how this card turned out. I'm really enjoying using my blending brushes. We hope everyone will have a great weekend celebrating with their families and friend.
Thanks for stopping by,
Nancy

Super cute card Nancy, I'm sure your husband loved it. My husband sold his truck when I became pregnant. It was so high I couldn't get in it and we knew we needed a family vehicle. Hope your doing good. I'm getting ready to have a yard Sale this coming weekend. They are exhausting!
love the quote about faith.... Agree that faith gives ability to handle the pain...
Nice card as always....
I loved your story and I know Joe loved his card! Such sweet and fun memories. My Dad had a gas station when I was a teenager. The place was an icon in our area, but all that is torn down and overgrown now. Such a cute truck and sentiment to go with it. I have two truck dies and I love them. Don't know why I think old trucks are so cool.
