The card was really quick and simple to make. I added the handles and some tool details to the card. All the pieces are sponged with SU Close to Cocoa ink. The level has clear acetate that was colored using Copic YR04 Chrome Orange..looks realistic, eh? Only the peg board is popped with dimensionals........finishing touch is tied twine at the fold.
Card inside: stamped image is from retired SU It's your Birthday set and the "60" is from Stampendous Fifteen Candles stamp set. edges also sponged with SU Close to Cocoa ink.
Here is the tool box: A silver gel pen around the handles and front latch. The latch is popped with dimensionals. The front panel is embossed using Cuttlebug Diamond Plate folder. Wooden measuring stick is from Maya Road - sponged it with SU Close to Cocoa ink. "Larry" is cut using Liza Display Pro font and my Silhouette Cutting machine.
Top of the tool box:
And, inside: Inside I made an additional tray to hold some paper tools. The lining inside the tray is also embossed with the Cuttlebug Diamond Plate folder and sponged with SU Close to Cocoa ink. The tools were fun to make and also sponged with ink.
Remove the tray to reveal: Almond Roca sweets!!!! This fits 20 pieces.
Tray details: to pull out the tray, handles made using 1-1/4" and 3/4" punched circles
Bottom of the tool box:
This was a fun project to complete. The tool box was really quick. SVGcuts.com did a GREAT job in making this cut file so easy to assemble. Thank you Mary & Leo (from SVGcuts.com). Hope you enjoyed this and have a great fun crafty day!
