Husband Card using CTMH Hawthorn Cardmaking Stamp & Thin Cuts (retired)

Hello Friends!  How are you?  It is summer and already hot here in Southern CA.  I tried to ride my bicycle yesterday and I started having trouble breathing; so I had to come home.  It was only 75 degrees outside at the time.  I have had trouble with breathing issues since I was in nursing school when I was in my 20's.  It is frustrating not being able to do things the things I want/need to do.  I need exercise; as I have gained a lot of weight during the Pandemic.  I hope you are able to get out and enjoy the summer/spring/fall/winter; whichever one it is in your area.  

I decided to create a several cards for males a couple weeks ago; which is one of the reasons I decided I would not create anything else until I got my craft room cleaned up and everything put away.  LOL!  This card is for my husband.  I have two that I made for his Father's Day card; but now I am not sure which one to use this year.  LOL!  

I am still trying to learn how to do stenciling.  I see so many awesome cards in the crafting world; but mine don't look as good as I would like.  I wanted this truck to look antique; but not sure if I achieved that.  I am a perfectionist; even though I try to overcome it all the time.  LOL!

    It's been unusually Hot and Humid here in Florida. We're used to the Summer Heat but the humidity has made it quite miserable. You've created a very handsome masculine card. Thanks for sharing your lovely project with us at The Paper Funday Challenge.

    The stenciling is wonderful - it looks so nice when it fades out on the edges. Great color match as well. Thank you for joining the stamped image challenge at Allsorts.
