One Last Thank You

Continuing the presentation of Thank You Cards (read the original post here)...

My husband came and helped during our "vaccine crisis", so of course I needed a special Thank You for him:

Once again I turned to the Nailed It set (I'm in love, what can I say). As in this card, I stamped the tools on Whisper White paper and colored them with the Watercolor Pencils and a Blender Pen. Then, using the coordinating Build It framelits dies, I cut out the tools.

Look at that great background! That's the incredible Hexagons Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. This THICK embossing folder leaves a deep impression--when using it you don't need a bottom cutting plate on your Big Shot--just one plate on top and your Big Shot platform on the bottom.

I used Silver Foil Sheets to emboss, and it looks so industrial! Perfect for the guys in your life.

The sentiment banner was cut with one of the framelits in the set--it even embosses the edge. L.O.V.E. And I also love the adorable embellishments--just the right finishing touch!

More Thanks

If you read my post yesterday, you know about the power outage we had at my "day job" and the work accomplished by a team of employees to "save the vaccines"!

Continuing my "week of thanks", here's another Thank You card given to one of the employees who helped during that long night:

Three guys showed up to help, so I needed a few masculine cards for them. Thought this was a suitable one for Arfan:

The Nailed It set and matching framelits make it so easy to create for the guys in your life. I stamped the tools on Very Vanilla cardstock and colored them with the new Watercolor Pencils and a Blender Pen. Then I cut each with the coordinating framelit.

The card base is Delightful Dijon (did you know this great color is soon to retire, along with it's 2015-2017 In Color friends? If you love these colors, stock up now! Once the retirement list comes out, they'll be snapped up!). There is a layer of Basic Black and then I cut pieces of the fabulous Urban Underground Specialty Designer Series Paper to set off my tools.

And don't you love the sentiment and those cool screw embellishments? How does it get better than this?

Come back tomorrow for another thank you idea.

Nailed It! Yes, I did!

Remember this card?

I used the new Nailed It stamp set with the coordinating Build It framelits dies. It was a huge hit.

But today I'm taking it to the next level. I really liked my "carpenter's apron", but my son's birthday is coming up, and I wanted to make his card an over-the-top one.

OK, are you ready to see it? One that takes a masculine card to the next level? I call this my "card in a (tool) box"...what do you think?

Evan loves everything "tool". So when I first saw this set, I knew it was going to find a home in my craft room, and I also knew that I'd be creating something special with it for Evan.

I took the basic "card in a box" idea, but made it into a tool box. It had to be able to fold flat for mailing.

This was NO easy task. I had to figure out the measurements; my previous card-in-a-box template was for a square card. But tool boxes are not square. So back to the drawing board...or should I say "grid paper". Yes, I sketched out what I wanted, and with a little help from the internet, figured out my measurements. The cardstock was cut to 3-1/2" x 11". I scored it at 1", 5", 6" and 10", then turned the paper and lightly scored it at 1-3/4".

The box is Soft Suede. I then took another piece of Soft Suede and inked up my Hardwood stamp with Soft Suede ink. Once stamped, I cut it into pieces to adhere to the face of my toolbox.

Then it was on to the tools. Such fun to stamp them (on Chocolate Chip, Real Red and [retired] Brushed Silver cardstock) and then cut them out with the framelits.

I struggled the most with the name plate. I used a rotary alphabet stamp [also retired] on Copper Foil. Of course the foil is slippery--took me about 6 tries to finally get the darn thing inked up with Archival Black ink! But the nameplate is a die in the framelits, set--isn't it cute on the front of the tool box?

So what do you think? Will my Mr. Fix It son like his card? I think so...
