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.

Trusty Toolbox 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.

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. 

Trusty Toolbox Save

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.

    Here’s the card I featured on last week’s video. We made it at my February card clubs locally and it was a big hit!

    Save

    My colors include Lost Lagoon, Pecan Pie & Basic Beige. There are two different pieces of the designer paper that’s called Nature Walk and can be seen here.

    There are lots of pieces and extra elements to this card. It was super fun to put together. That neat striped embossing folder on the extra Lost Lagoon layer is called Lovely Stripes and can be seen here. It’s one of my new favorites.

    This card is kept closed by the narrow ‘flap’ attached to the right side of the card. I added a small triangle to the DSP layer to tuck the corner into. Works great To hold that flap down!

    Save

    The flap is adhered ‘underneath’ the DSP layer inside the card. *note the other embossing folder used on the card above. It’s called Stone & Vine and is also a deeply textured folder seen here.

    There are many, many details on this card I want to highlight. Here goes:

    • The die-cut leaves and ‘wood’ piece under the greeting are from the Nature’s Symphony bundle seen here.
    • The die-cut leaves are cut out from our two-sided card stock. I love that you can choose the light or the dark side which gives more color choices!
    • I added Pecan Pie ink to that wood die-cut with a blending brush.
    • The greeting is from the Three Banner punch bundle seen here.

    I created a free project sheet you can print or download. Click to see it.

    Below is the video tutorial for this card; I hope you watch it as I give multiple tips and ways to make your crafting process easier.

  • Greenery Lane card with the new Washi Tape

    I was playing around with the Greenery Lane bundle and the new coordinating Washi Tape and created this card:

    Save

    My colors are Garden Green with White; simple. I adhered the Washi Tape to a piece of White CS and then cut one piece into a large circle and used the coordinating dies to cut four of the leaves. You can see the bundle here and below.

    Save

    The Greenery Lane Washi tape coordinates with many of the dies in the bundle. It’s so pretty in shades of green. See it online here.

    Save

    I also used the Nested Essential dies for the greeting, the Spotlight on Nature dies and the Textured Notes dies (unavailable right now but on the Last Chance list).

    Save

    If you look at my greeting ‘hugs’ you’ll notice it’s not alone. I carefully inked just the ‘hugs’ with my ink pad since I wanted a short greeting.
    I hope you like it and are inspired by product and the layout.
