Trusty Tools single gatefold card with the Sale-a-Bration Trusty Toolbox designer paper


Last week I shared the projects featuring the Trusty Tools bundle and the Trusty Toolbox designer paper in my weekly video. I've shared the free project sheets for two of those in the last two blog posts. 

 

Today I'll focus on the third project on the right – a single gate-fold card with a 'faux' toolbox on the front.  

I love this greeting!  It's from the Trusty Tools bundle seen here.  The tools in front are all fussy cut from the Trusty Toolbox designer paper (and Holographic specialty paper in the Annual Catalog) although a few of the dies in the bundle coordinate with the paper. 

I did not create a project sheet for this project but I will provide the measurements:

Measurements:

  • Gray Granite card base 6 1/2" X 5 1/2" score at 4 1/4" plus die-cut tool box pieces 
  • DSP – front is 2" X 5 1/4", inside is 4" X 5 1/4" plus fussy cut tools
  • Black 3 1/2" square
  • White greeting layer 2 3/4" X 1"; inside is 3 1/4" square

Here's the inside view: 

I also shared this adorable treat box on the video as well as another cool fun-fold card; I hope you watch it! 

Below is the video where I demo how to make it.  Click here or on the photo below to watch this and two more projects featuring this bundle and designer paper.

  • Need a quick gift box for the Holidays? Use your designer paper!!


    Are you a last minute wrapper?  I can help! I made these fast gift boxes on this week's FB Live.  Honestly they are super easy and you can make them wide or tall depending on where you score. 


    Each one is made from 2 pieces of 12 X 12" designer paper; these are from Toile Tidings which is now discontinued and out of stock.   Double sided paper is preferred and makes them extra special.  I used the same patterns for each box; flipping the pattern so they coordinated. 

    I know some of you might think it's frivolous to use your designer paper for gift boxes.  Now consider how much DSP you have stored up!  Use it; you can do it!


    And here is another version with the new True Love designer paper; all Black & White! It's from the upcoming 2021 Spring Catalog!

    I colored some of the flowers on the paper with both Rococo Rose and Purple Posy Blends markers.  Then I added two ribbons; Black glittered and Purple Posy. 


    You can watch the video here.   Scroll towards the end for the boxes.

  • Quite Curvy & Classic Christmas Strips


    I totally enjoy making these strip cards!  It seems like I always have little strips of paper left over from a project. Most times I can toss them without a thought but now & then I have trouble doing that. This technique puts them to great use! 

    You can catch my tips on this technique in the video below. 

    I used the Classic Christmas designer paper on this card.  It's available now through January 4th or while supplies last.  The colors are Shaded Spruce, Sahara Sand & Cherry Cobbler.  See it here. 

    I also used the Quite Curvy stamp set and dies.  They are available now and will be in the upcoming 2021 Spring Catalog.  See them here now.

  • Snowflake Wishes Fun Fold card with video; it’s easier than it looks!


    We made this pretty card at my December Card Clubs.  It features the Snowflake Wishes bundle and the Snowflake Splendor designer paper. 

    The colors were inspired by the beautiful Snowflake Splendor designer paper. It's Balmy Blue, White & Highland Heather.  

    This gorgeous designer paper is retiring in a few weeks and it's on sale now while supplies last!  See it here. 

    The Snowflake Wishes bundle is also retiring (as a bundle). It's returning separately in the upcoming Annual Catalog in May but it will not be 10% off then. See it here.

    The measurements can be found below.  It's a standard A2 card. Here's a copy of the project sheet for this card. 

    Measurements: 

    • Balmy Blue – 5 1/2" X 4 1/4", plus 4" X 11" scored at 2" and 3 3/4" from both ends
    • Snowflake Splendor DSP 1" X 4" (2 pieces)
    • Highland Heather 3 3/4" square
    • Whisper White 3 1/2" square for front, 3 1/2" X 3" for inside, 1" X 3 1/2" for front greeting
    • Balmy Blue glimmer paper 1/2" X 4"
