A Fathers Day card for my Husband an avid woodworker and tool collector! This is a mini-slimline card, one of my favorite sizes!


For this card, I used:
  • Gina K Designs - Black Onyx, Soft Stone, Kraft, Warm Cocoa, Charcoal Brown Ink
  • Gina K Designs - Fizzy Stencil
  • Gina K Designs - Master Layouts 15 and associated stencil
  • Gina K Designs - Mr. Fit-It stamp set and associated dies
  • Various Copic Markers - Reds and Grays

To make the card, I stamped the images from Mr. Fix-It, cut them with the associated dies and colored them with Copic markers.  I then cut the stamp panel from ML 15 along with the black mat.  The Fizzy Stencil was used on top of the ML 15 stencil to create a background for the tools. I added the tools to the stamp strip.  The background which looks like wood was created by scoring a piece of white card stock, and adding color directly from ink pads.  This piece was added to a card base with the stamp strip added on top.  A sentiment was added to complete the card.
