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.

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.

• Another Positive thoughts card; in a unique color combination

  January 14, 2020

  ---

  I have no idea where I came up with this color combination.  I started out with the Petal Pink because I wanted to use the gorgeous champagne edged ribbon.  Maybe I was avoiding green; but the Basic Gray looks beautiful with the Petal Pink!

  The Positive Thoughts stamp set is so easy to play with; the images are soft yet detailed which is totally my style. That embossing folder is called 'Coastal Weave'.  It's a free gift to everyone who places an online order over $65 this month (detailed below). 

  AND, they are coming out with dies to coordinate with this stamp set in February!  I'm so excited about them.  It includes 11 dies for each of the images in the set plus more!  A stitched rectangle, a detailed edgelit and more botanical images.  You'll love them!  They will be for purchase; they're not part of Sale-a-Bration.

  Besides the pretty images the greetings put me over the edge to buy it.  I know I'll use them a lot.

• Stitched So Sweetly & Positive Thoughts

  January 13, 2020

  Yesterday I shared one version of this card and here is the other.  I had extra background pieces stamped so I tried something else.

  Save

  I used the same dies; but added the So Sentimental stamp set for the greeting above.  

  And here is the first version:  Which do you prefer?  This (above) or that (below)? 

  Save

  Here is the new So Sentimental bundle; my favorite bundle in the entire new catalog!  See them here.

• Sending Positive Thoughts; love this new stamp set!

  January 10, 2020

  ---

  This Positive Thoughts stamp set seems to be a 'sleeper' to some people but it caught my eye right away!  Everyone asked where the stamp set was when they saw my cards. 

  Save

  I knew I could make pretty cards with the images; the leaves, flower and feather are perfect with lots of fine details. But the greetings; they are some I will definitely get a lot of use of.

  This soft, botanical card is one I made for an online swap I participated in.  I used Mint Macaron, Pretty Peacock and of course the pretty Petal Pink. The new champagne rhinestones and Petal Pink/Champagne ribbon was color inspiration. 

  I also used the new Stitched So Sweetly dies; my top pick in the entire new catalog!  See them here.

  Save

  I'll share a second version of this card with you tomorrow.
