Father's Day Wood Working Tools Card

Hello my Bloggy Friends, I am trying to get back on track with my blog, life gets so busy and time runs away :)

 

 Today I have made a Father's Day Card featuring the

card Sketch provided at Mojo Monday for their

current Challenge :) 

I used a wood working tool theme for my Dad.

For the front of this card I followed the basic sketch layout, I tried really hard to keep it simple and masculine.  For the embossing I used the Cuttlebug diamond plate folder.  I took aluminum foil shiny side down, and adhered it to a piece of cardstock.

I then ran it through Cuttlebug.  For the Tape measure,

I used a Cricut cut from Handy Man Lite, cutting all layers of the tape measure at 2".  I used a black gel pen to go over the cuts for the lines. The Sentiment I created on my computer and printed out. 

For the inside, I cut layers to match the front.  Again I used my computer to create the sentiment.  This time I cut the Hand Saw

out with my Cricut Handy Man Lite cart also at 2". 

I added a black brad to represent a nail to hang the saw from as the Cricut cuts the hole there and it looked funny to just leave it.

 

I am entering this card into these Challenges:
