Trusty Tools ‘Toolbox’ Treat box with video & free project sheet!

Happy Valentine's Day! 

I had to try my hand at making a treat box using the Trusty Toolbox designer paper. So I came up with this & shared it on last week's video here.

Save

Isn't it adorable?  It holds quite a few candy treats plus there's room for a gift card too. I plan to give this to my husband today.

I decided to change it up a bit and added a pegboard (made with the Trusty Tools' dies seen here) to the back of my second box.

Save

The tools in the box are cut from the Trusty Toolbox designer paper seen here. You can use the Trusty Tools dies for some of them as they coordinate wonderfully.  But honestly I fussy cut most of them.

Details:

• The box is 3 1/2" wide and the 1 1/2" deep & high. The pegboard is 4 1/2" tall. 
• The 'Celebrate' greeting is from the Thoughtful Moments dies & emboss folder seen here.  My new favorite! I added ink after I cut the word out using my brayer very, very gently. *watch the video to see how
• There are two handles glued back to back in the center. 
• The tools are adhered to the front, center layer and the back to give depth & interest to the box. 
• The tool designer paper on the front & sides are also from the Trusty Toolbox designer paper from our Sale-a-Bration catalog.

Aren't they just adorable?!  What a great little treat to give to the guys?  And why not the gals too?

• Lovely Lily Pad Wow Card

  February 3, 2020

  ---

  Look at this gorgeous card Candace made for our last Flowerbug's Team card swap.  She's a fabulous card designer!

  Save

  She used the Lovely Lily Pad stamp set and the Lily Pad dies for this card.  She colored the stamped lily with Wink of Stella. Did you know that if you stamp in our Classic ink you can just blend the colors without adding more ink? Super easy; especially with a nice outline image like this one. 

  Her colors here are Highland Heather, Coastal Cabana and Bermuda Bay with White and Olive accents.  

  The greeting here is from the 'Thanks for the Laughs' stamp set on page 11 of your Mini Catalog.  See it here. 

  Save

  The Lovely Lily Pad stamp set is free with any $50 order during our Sale-a-Bration promotion throught March of 2020.  The dies are free with a $100 order.  Place a $150 order and you get both FREE plus $15 in free product and Buyer Brownie Points from me.  See details on my loyalty program here.

• Peaceful Moments in pastel colors

  January 30, 2020

  ---

  Yesterday I shared a bright and colorful card featuring the Peaceful Moments bundle.  Today I have a soft and pastel card; totally different in colors and style but using the same bundle.

  Save

  Candace B made this one for our Flowerbug's Team swap.  She chose to use Blushing Bride with Soft Sea Foam, White and Old Olive.  Just gorgeous in a totally different way. 

  • White card base is 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
  • Blushing Bride is 5 3/8" X 4 1/8" 
  • Soft Sea Foam is 5" X 3 3/4"

  She sponged the large petals with Blushing Bride.  I just love that little bud at the top of the leaves.  It's one of the dies in the Poppy Moments set.  You can see the bundle here.
