A special Trusty Tools Double-box fun fold card – free project sheet & video tutorial

We made this fabulous men's fun-fold card at my January Card Clubs; I also shared it on last week's Live video too.  

Trusty Tools Club Jan Save

 

It features Gray Granite, Crushed Curry, Poppy Parade & White plus a bit of our Holographic specialty paper for the wrench die-cut.  

This double box fun fold card can be positioned two ways – horizontal like this or vertical where the left box is the bottom. 

A few details:

  • All 3 die-cuts on the front are from the Trusty Tools bundle & die set.
  • The neat textured Gray Granite layer is Metal Place 3D embossing folder. 
  • The tool designer paper is the Trusty Toolbox 12" DSP – seen here.  It's free during Sale-a-Bration with any $50 purchase.  I'm actually surprised they haven't run out of it yet!!

If you order the Trusty Tools bundle you can earn the coordinating Trusty Toolbox designer paper FREE! It's $54.75 for the bundle.

For greetings I also used the Throughout the Year stamp set for additional options. See it here.

  • A fun way to add color to the Happy Place stamp with video tutorial

    I shared how to add color to the large ‘Happy’ from the Happy Place stamp set on last week’s Live video. What do you think?

    Save

    We made this cute card at my September card clubs. The colors include Lost Lagoon, Calypso Coral & White. You might wonder how I achieved the two-toned inking on the Happy image. I used inks – Lost Lagoon for the water and Calypso Coral for the sky. For this sample I used large ink pads. But for my Clubs we used smaller ink spots. It was a lot easier this way!

    Save

    You might also wonder where I got the rectangle Perennial Postage die shape. I had to die-cut a larger rectangle twice to get this size. It was pretty easy and I share how in the video below.

    Save

    We textured the Lost Lagoon layer with the Wave 3D embossing folder and the curvy leaf dies are from the Label Me Grateful dies seen here. I love them! The inside greeting is from the With You in Mind stamp set.

    Save

    It’s an easy fold that shows off the inside of the card and the designer paper we added. This DSP is the Subtles 6″ designer paper which has some great patterns.

    Save

    I really enjoyed playing with this fun stamp set. I’ll share another project from the video tomorrow. See the Happy Place set here.

    I created a free project sheet for you with measurements, photos, directions and a supply list with links. Click on this link to print or download it.

    Below is the video tutorial for this card and one more. Don’t forget to subscribe to my YouTube Channel while you’re there!

    Isn’t it stunning?! Tracey loves to create her own background with stamps. It looks like printed paper! She says she stamped the flowers & leaves in 12 different ink colors!! Wow!

    She used the following stamps: Encircled with Love, Blooming Phrases, Impressions Abloom, With You in Mind & You are Remarkable.

    The leaves are from the Thankful Garden dies; the embossing folder is Exposed Brick. What a fabulous card!
