Masculine Punch Art

My convention roomie, Kathy Alt, hosts a punch art swap at convention each year.  What kind of friend would I be if I didn't participate?  In fact, I actually made 2 cards for her swap this year.  I'm sharing the first one with you today.

I absolutely love the Chevron embossing folder and I could probably use it on every single card I make (I won't, though). I used just a small strip of the Howlstooth & Scaringbone DSP from the Holiday Mini.....see?  It's not just for Halloween.

This part of the wrench was created by punching the Word Window punch first, then a 1-1/4" circle punch out of Basic Gray card stock.  I also sponged all the edges with Basic Gray ink.

The end of the wrench was created with an itty bitty scallop punch and a 3/4" circle punch.

The white label was die cut with the Apothecary Accents framelits.  The greeting is from the Delightful Dozen stamp set and I added 3 silver mini brads.


Isn't this a great card for the handy men in your life?  You could easily change the greeting into a birthday or thinking of you card.
