Today's project is a manly card made with one of my favorites from the Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog (that's the big one!), Rustic Retreat Cling Stamp Set [150285].  This beautiful deer is easy to color and we are switching it up a bit by stamping and coloring on Crumb Cake cardstock.

If you are usually scrambling to make a birthday card for a guy, you'll want to keep this idea and make a stack of these while you are at it! 

Here's today's video tutorial for this masculine card idea.

Lisa's Inklings:

• Crumb Cake 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock [120953] base is cut at 4-1/4" x 11".
• You will need two other pieces of Crumb Cake.  One at 3-1/4" x 4-1/4" and the other at 2-1/4" x 3-1/4" for stamping.
• Pretty Peacock 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock [150880] is cut at 4" x 5-1/4".
• Woven Threads Designer Series Paper [149497] in Pretty Peacock is cut 3" x 4".

• A small piece of Whisper White 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock [100730] will work well to die cut the tires and trees.
