STAMPIN' UP! TRUSTY TOOLS BIRTHDAY CARD

 The Stampin' Up! January - April Mini Catalogue and Sale-A-Bration brochure (running only to the end of February), are packed full of great new products.  The Trusty Tools bundle, of stamps and dies, was a must-have for me.  During Sale-A-Bration, if you spend $90+ on catalogue products, you can earn free products, including the awesome Trusty Toolbox Designer Series Papers that co-ordinate with the Trusty Tools bundle.

The card I have to share today showcases how beautifully the Trusty Tools Dies cut out images from some of the patterned papers.  The sentiment is the only stamping on my card ... I've let the papers and dies do all the "talking".



The background paper, in Poppy Parade and Gray Granite, gives the look of a standing toolbox with drawers (my son has one just like this!).  I stamped the sentiment, from Biggest Wish, in Memento Tuxedo Black ink.  

How cute are the nut, bolt and screw, die-cut from Silver Adhesive-Backed Glimmer Paper?





The bottom half of the card front is two of the other papers from the Trusty Toolbox DSP pack.  I sponged the outer edges of all the background papers with Gray Granite ink, before matting them on a Poppy Parade card panel.

The tools, and measuring tape, were die-cut from one of the sheets of Trusty Toolbox Designer Series Paper.  Just for fun, I added a glimmery nut to the side of the measuring tape.



Just a simple card from me today, to show how beautifully the dies and Designer Series Paper go together!

I'll have another Trusty Tools card to share with you tomorrow.

Listed below are the products I used to make my card.  NB:  You can't purchase the Trusty Toolbox Designer Series Paper (the price shown is indicative of value only).  It can only be earned for free, with a $90+ product purchase before the end of February.  If you live in Australia, and would like to shop with me for your Stampin' Up! supplies, you can get to my online store by clicking on any of the thumbnail images below.
