Countryside Pump
I can't think of a better stamp set to invest in if you're looking for wonderful masculine images! Countryside stamp set has so much to offer! The images look great simply stamped as a sketch, or have fun watercoloring all the detail. I began with Whisper White card stock then added Marina Mist card stock and a thin strip of Cherry Cobbler card stock that's been run through the Big Shot using the Square Lattice Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. This is also a "must have" tool for masculine card making! A layer of Soft Suede card stock with three Gold Brads backs the main image which is stamped on Whisper White card stock with Early Espresso ink and also backed with an Early Espresso card stock border. Main image is popped up with Dimensionals.

Preparing for Card Ministry
I've been fortunate to be asked to help a local church begin a card ministry to serve the homebound people in their congregation. This month, we want to create one masculine card and another card that would be a "happy" get well card – not too serious. So I got to work to come up with some samples, and before I knew it, I had way too many! Thought I'd share them with you. Maybe you can help us decide which cards to make! I'll post one each day for a while!
Here's one of the masculine cards:
We're going for "easy yet effective" so there aren't a lot of embellishments, but I still think this card has a lot of interest. I began with Not Quite Navy – haven't used this color in years, and all of the sudden, it works for everything! The old truck stamp comes from Countryside stamp set and is stamped in black on Whisper White card stock then mounted onto Poppy Parade card stock. Old Olive card stock and some Poppy Parade 1/2" Stitched-Poly Ribbon held down with a Gold Brad give some pop. Praying for you sentiment is from Thoughts & Prayers stamp set.
