Trusty Toolbox Designer Series Paper

Hello again,

Another simple scrapbook page, this time using the Trusty Toolbox Designer Series Paper (#162978) which is a Sale-a-bration product and co-ordinates with the Trusty Tools Bundle (#162723). The new mini catalogue and sale-a-bration goes live on 4th January. There are several products in sale-a-bration which co-ordinate with products in the mini catalogue which I love.

The photos were matted with Real Red card (#106578) and Basic Black card (#121688). The base page and the strip with the screwdrivers are from the Trusty Toolbox DSP. I also stamped the tools from the Trusty Tools stamp set (#163274) onto the base page using Gray Granite ink (#147118).

I fussy cut the tools from the DSP and these were attached to the page with Mini Glue Dots (#103683). The letters were cut with the Mini Alphabet dies (#162934) from Real Red card which was backed with Adhesive Sheets (#152334).

Some of the tools in the DSP can also be cut with the Trusty Tools dies (#162722) as well as the stamped images.

Trusty Toolbox Designer Series Paper

Hi stamping friends,

Another Masculine card today using the Trusty Toolbox Designer Series Paper (#162978) which is a Sale-a-bration product and co-ordinates with the Trusty Tools Bundle (#162723) from the upcoming Mini catalogue.

Some of the tools in the Designer Paper can be cut with the Trusty Tools dies (#162722). The others are easily fussy cut. After cutting the tools they were attached to the card front which is also from the Trusty Toolbox DSP. This was matted with Lost Lagoon card (#133686) ad then attached to the Basic White card base (#159228).

The tool box was cut with the Trusty Tools dies using one of the foils from the Silver Foil Specialty Pack (#156457). The box was then dry embossed with the Metal Plate 3D Embossing Folder (#160766). I attached the box & handle with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

“Thank you” is from the Trusty Tools stamp set (#163274) and this was stamped with Lost Lagoon ink (#161678). I used a Timeless Arrangements die (#161525) to cut the sentiment.

Trusty Tools

Hello friends,

I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas and now have some time to relax. Perhaps it will be a chance to get back into the craft room.

I am very short of masculine cards so the new Trusty Tools Bundle (#162723) is perfect for me to make some cards particularly for the handyman.

I stamped the tools from the Trusty Tools stamp set (#163274) using Basic Gray ink (#149165) and Real Red ink (#147084). I coloured part of the images with Smokey Slate Stamin’ Blends (#154904) and Real Red Stampin’ Blends (#154899). I also added some Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) to add that bit of shimmer. These tools and the screws & bolts were cut with the Trusty Tools Dies (#162722). For the screws & bolts I used Silver Foil Specialty card (#156457) which was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334).

I used a die on the Very Vanilla card front (#106550) with another Trusty Tools die for the “pegboard”. This was matted with Real Red card (#106578). A piece of the Trusty Toolbox Designer Series Paper (#162978) was attached to the right side of the card. This DSP is from the Sale-a-bration products. There are many tools in this pack which co-ordinate with the Trusty Tools dies.

The stamped tools were attached to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). “DAD” is cut with the Mini Alphabet dies (#162934) using Real Red card which was backed with Adhesive Sheet.

The new mini catalogue and Sale-a-bration will be available for ordering from 4th January. One advantage of being a demonstrator is that you get early access to new products, so if you want to know more about joining my team please contact me at lesley.j.jendra@gmail.com
