Tool Time Birthday
My son-in-law recently celebrated his birthday and since he is a tradie, the Trusty Tools Bundle was my go to. I die cut a piece of Copper Clay card using the peg board die from the Trusty Tools Dies and attached a piece of now retired Trusty Toolbox 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper across the bottom of the panel. The whole piece is attached to scored and folded thick Basic White card. I die cut Basic White card using one of the Radiating Stitches Dies and stamped the greeting from the Enjoy The Rhythm stamp set onto the lower right hand corner using Copper Clay ink.

I die cut the hammer, wrench and measuring tape from the Trusty Toolbox Designer Series Paper using the co-ordinating Trusty Tools Dies. The images are attached to the Basic White rectangle using dimensionals under the measuring tape image.

To decorate the inside of the card, I stamped the greeting from the Beautiful Balloons stamp set onto Basic White card using Copper Clay ink. I die cut the pencil image from the Designer Series Paper using the co-ordinating Trusty Tools Die and attached it below the greeting. I created this card while the Designer Series Paper was still current but thought you might like to see a version of the same card not using the Designer Series Paper. For this card, instead of the Designer Series Paper, I embossed a piece of Crushed Curry card using the Metal 3D Embossing Folder. I stamped each of the images onto Basic White card using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured them using Light Gray Granite, Dark Daffodil Delight & Dark Lost Lagoon Stampin’ Blends. I used the same images, dies, stamps and inks.

They both look great, don’t they?
Bye for now,
Kris
