I received this awesome card from Kim Allen. It’s a sweet & simple Father’s Day card using the fun Trusty Toolbox DSP for a cool background and focal point.

Kim’s card begins with a 5-1/2″ x 7-1/2″ Gray Granite card base, scored at the 3-1/4″ mark. She adhered two pieces of the Trusty Toolbox DSP onto the front panel, measuring 2″ x 5-1/4″ and 1″ x 5-1/4″. She also stamped the Trusty Tools screws and nut image in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto the lower right corner of the 4″ x 5-1/4″ Basic White inside sheet.

Kim stamped the Trusty Tools greeting in Memento Black ink onto Gray Granite Stylish Shapes die-cut and popped it up with Dimensionals.

Kim used the Trusty Tools Dies to die-cut a wrench from the Trusty Toolbox Designer Series Paper for the focal point and topped it with a bow in White Baker’s Twine. Just perfect!

Here’s another Trusty Toolbox DSP Father’s Day card, this time created by Amy Combs. I just adore all of the layers of DSP in the contrasting colors.

Amy’s card begins with a 5-1/2″ x 7″ piece of Poppy Parade cardstock, scored at the 2-3/4″ mark. She added a 2-1/4″ x 5″ piece of Trusty Toolbox DSP to a 2-1/2″ x 5-1/4″ piece of Gray Granite cardstock and adhered it to the front panel. She also added a 5/8″ x 5″ strip along the left side.

Amy used the DSP to create a fun inside of the card that shows to the outside. She started with a 4″ x 5-1/4″ piece of Gray Granite adding 1-3/4″ x 4″ pieces of both Basic White cardstock and a Poppy Parade pattern of Trusty Toolbox DSP. She finished with another 4″ x 1″ strip of Trusty Toolbox DSP in a contrasting Crushed Curry pattern.

Next, Amy die-cut a Stylish Shapes circle with yet another pattern from the Trusty Toolbox DSP and layered it onto a Poppy Parade Deckled Circles die-cut. She added final DSP layer with the Heartfelt Hexagon Punch. All of these background layers were mounted onto the front panel with SEAL Adhesive.

Amy used the Trusty Tools Dies to cut a Pretty Peacock label and stamped a Trusty Tools greeting on it with Memento Tuxedo Black ink.

Amy finished by die-cutting a hammer and measuring tape from the Trusty Toolbox DSP with the Trusty Tools Dies. She adhered the hammer with SEAL and popped up the measuring tape with Dimesionals. She add a few Cork Rounds around the circle to complete the look. So awesome!
