I got this invitation from a friend of mine, Danielle Pearson, and just had to make one of my own! You can use it as a birthday card or even a great invitation. The back of the truck turns down to dump and leaves you space to write your message on the inside!

Print out the template onto regular computer paper. Use Dotto Repositionable adhesive to attach the template to the correct color pieces of cardstock. You will need to punch (two) 2-1/2 circles out of black cardstock for the wheels. Cut a 5-1/2 x piece of Basic Gray cardstock and round the edges. I cut the main piece of the truck out of Not Quite Navy cardstock. I cut the back of the dump truck out of Cajun Craze as well as punched (two) 1 circles for the middle of the wheels. The little window is cut out of black.

Tape on the gray strip to the bottom of the truck body. Put your dump truck back piece in place and punch a hole through for the wheel to go. When you put the wheel on top with a brad, this is what makes the back of the truck go up and down. Make sure your hole is high enough so the wheel covers the strip of Cajun paper that makes the back move.

Put both Cajun wheel centers on and then put them on with brads. Make sure you put them high enough so it will still fit in your standard envelope. Stamp your sentiment on the front and write your message on the inside and you are ready to go!
