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".

Today we are going to be "building" this little red truck in the first video and a putting some finishing Christmas touches in the second and sharing a Stamparatus [146276] trick.

If you watched my last video, you already know that I've been showing off the Ride With Me Bundle [151106] And, if you've watched that video, you will also know that I promised you another video with a surprise guest!  

So without further ado, introducing my biggest fan and supporter...

This second video contains the Stamparatus trick that helped to finish out the truck with a Christmas theme.

Lisa's Inklings:

• A small piece of Whisper White 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock [100730] will work well to die cut the tires and trees.
• A 1" strip of a Silver Foil Sheets [132178]will work to cut the bumper.

Here are the Stampin' Up! Supplies used to create this project.

Get your Stampin' Up! Ride With Me Bundle [151106] today and you'll be making great cards and trucks to surprise and delight your family and friends!

We took a fun "ride" yesterday afternoon on Facebook Live with the Stampin' Up! Ride With Me Bundle [151106].

This great bundle and it's versatile, too!  It's not only great for birthdays but also fall-themed and Christmas cards!  Here's a Christmas card sample from my Christmas in July series.

The birthday card above was simply stamped and colored with Stampin' Blends. You'll have to watch the video to see my reason for choosing this particular color.

The gift bag above shows an alternative use of the truck die and was inspired by a project in the Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog.

In the Facebook Live recording below, I mention a special guest that teams up with me in a recorded video of the making the 3D truck.  You will have to tune back in tomorrow to see that! 

Here's the recording for these two projects.  Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show!

 Let's start of the 12 Weeks of Halloween Projects for 2019 with this home décor banner made with Stampin' Up! supplies!

I love using this simple style banner for Halloween but I have made kinds of styles!  Here is a look at two from past years HERE and HERE!

This one comes to you early in the season so you can have it ready when it's time to decorate.

Let's take a look at the first in a series of Halloween projects for 2019.

Lisa's Inklings:

• Banner pieces are cut from Crumb cs and measure 4" x 5-1/2".  The banner end is hand-cut with Paper Snips as seen in the video.  You'll need about 1/2 sheet of cc to die cut the letters.
• Cajun Craze cs is cut 1" x 4" for strips along the top of the banner.  You'll need about 1/2 sheet of Cc to punch the Starbursts.
