Ale Yeah!

Hi Crafty Friends,

Today I am back with another sneak peek of new dies being released by Karen Burniston later this week. For this card I used the Tool Box Pop-up die set again along with the Six Pack Add-ons die set to create this Slimline male card for Father's Day.

I love that the tool box pop up can play double duty to use for someone that likes tools or for someone who likes beer or even soda.

I also used the Beer & Soda Clear Stamp set to add the sentiments you see on this card.

I wanted to make a Slimline card, to allow for the space needed for the bottles, I made my slimline card 3 3/4 inches wide by 8 1/2 inches tall.

I added labels from the Label Greetings die set to have a place for my sentiments and also a personal greeting.

I kept the front of my card fairly simple and used the Happy Father's Day sentiment which I layered over two ovals from the Crosshatch ovals die set. (Father's Day isn't until September down in Australia, so I have plenty of time to use it).

I also added a beer glass, beer bottle and opener to the lower left hand corner of my card.

 

Tool Box Pop-up

 

Hi Crafty Friends,

Today I am excited to share a sneak peek of the new products being released by Karen Burniston on Thursday 23rd July.

For my card today I have used the new Tool Box Pop-up die set along with the Tool Box Stage Add-Ons and the Tool Box Charms die sets.

The tool images included in the Tool Box Pop-up die set are the same as the ones included in the existing Tool Box Charms die set, the only difference is they are mirror image which means you can back your tools if you like so they can be seen complete however you turn the card.

I used the base from the Tool Box Stage Add-Ons to create the border on either side of the edge of my card.

For the sentiment I used the Tool Times Sayings which is a new Clear Stamp set being released. I used one of the labels from the Greetings Labels die set to add the sentiment and a blank one on the top right for a hand written message.

Here is a view of my card from the back, so you can see the back of the tool box.

I kept the front of my card fairly simple, adding the border the same as the inside of the card. I added a Father's Day sentiment from the Fishing Clear Stamp set.
