Nailed It – Take 2

We made a toolbelt card in Stamp Club last month.  You can see it here.  I promised my club members that I would show them a “stepped up” version of the card.  This is a re-creation of a card from the Occasions Catalog.

On the original version, we stamped the tools in basic black on white and colored them with an aquapainter.  We also stamped the screw heads on the pockets.  On my stepped up version here, I stamped the tools on silver foil, and again on Island Indigo (screwdriver and hammer) and Crushed Curry (saw).  I cut the handles off the cardstock images and adhered them to the silver foil images.

I also used markers to color the Happy Fathers Day in two colors instead of one.  And, I used the screw heads from the Urban Underground Embellishments on the pockets.  I think it really dresses this card up.  What do you think?

Nailed It

This is a simplified version of a card from the Occasions Catalog, and we made it in Stamp Club this month at the request of one of the members.

I also showed them how it could be “dressed up” by using silver foil, colored cardstock and the Urban Underground embellishments.

Jolly Friends

This is the last card from my Christmas Card Stamp Camp.  I liked them all, but I think this might be my favorite.  Isn’t he just the cutest, peeking out of a hole in the trees?  And I really like using Red Glimmer for the Santa hat.

I also used this card for a swap I participated in at OnStage Local in Atlanta.
