Krafty Tools
Friday, August 21st, 2009
The title of this post is very suitable for two reasons, Firstly for the most obvious reason of the Materials used. Kraft Cardstock & Kraft Pattern Papers and the “Totally Tool” Stamp Set. The second reason was I had to get “krafty” with my tools to create the circle. I LOVE all my Spellbinders dies and my stash of dies are only arms length away from my work station and most are always being used. I planned out this card and started making it then I reached for my Circle Spellbinders and then remembered I lent them to a friend that needed them for a class she was teaching……. WHY, I have not used my circle dies in a few weeks because I am loving the Label One and Four dies so I am using them for most projects but It always happens that way when you lend something that you have not used, You then want to use it yourself. SO I had to go old school and use a cutting knife and a coffee mug to cut my circle.
I was pretty happy with this card because Masculine cards are sometimes hard for me because I like “pretty”, But I must also say it helped because I love this stamp set and I see lost of options with the images and the text is a little funny and cute. Below are all the images in the 5 piece stamp set for $45.95. I have used all the tool images stamped in VersaMark for the background, Then the hammer image for the main image which I have stamped on DSP and Paper Pieced the image. The only thing I was not sure on was the ribbon…. I have this thing about ribbon on Masculine cards? I am just never sure if it is suitable? What do you think?
