It's day 1 of My Creative Time's 55th Edition Sneak Peeks! We've got a very fun release to share with you this week, and to start it off, we are sneaking a set that I'm really excited about! It's called Greatest Handyman, and it has the cutest toolbox and tools dies, along with lots of darling sentiments perfect for the men in your life!
I couldn't wait to get started with these dies, and I used some red foiled cardstock to cut my toolbox, stamping it with Black StazOn ink (to keep it from smearing). I then stamped and die cut my tools multiple times, in white for a base, silver metallic, and out of Ultra Thin Cherry Sheets from Hobby Lobby for the handles of the hammer and screwdriver. I pieced them all together and adhered them to the back of the toolbox.
I made a raised panel, using some kraft foam behind white cardstock, with one of the MORE Stitched Rectangular Dies. The sentiment is one of ten included in Greatest Handyman. I added some fun "screw" brads from Recollections, and then popped up the toolbox with some dimensional adhesive.
