Nifty Fifties Masculine Truck Card

It is sometimes difficult to create a masculine card especially when I tend to by floral paper and anything in the pink family.  I find the Nifty Fifties Cricut Cartridge to have quite a few items for masculine cards.  This time, a pick-up truck!  I love the way it turned out especially with the inking to make the truck a little less than spotless.
