Tools and thanks

Hi Everyone my card today is for the
This is a GREAT challenge for 
those mens card that you may find tricky,
 I hope you'll pay a visit and play with us.

Lots of ideas on this but in the end I decided to go with a thank you for the fitters here. I'll even do a few the same!!! so they have one each. I hate batch making, I rarely do more than one card the same, but I like this card and I think they may appreciate it. I have a few days to do it before they are finished, so maybe one or two a day or more, we'll see.

pinboard & tool images - Sherwood Studio "In his garage" digital kit at Digichick
images were taken in to the Silhouette design area, 
duplicated for extra thickness, printed and cut with the Cameo
sentiment - drawn with Silhouette pens
Spectrum Noir Sparkle pens onto metal parts.
tools stapled onto "pinboard" to replicate holders?
black card - stash

here's a piccy of the dots, on the sticky Sil mat, cut from the pinboard
it's cut from 210gsms photo double sided paper

Well now, Faith...that's just absolutely fantastic! I love the pegboard and the way you made the staples look just like the tool hooks. It actually looks just like my husband's workshop! Great card, my friend! :o)

This is a perfect card for the DIYer! Definitely need to keep this idea on the back burner - love the peg board effect. Wish I could say that hubby kept his area tidy like this though!! LOL

Wow Faith,

I think all you designers literally USED a lot of tools to create all these incredible cards. Loooooove the punchboard, looks so real! Can you come over and fix my washer? hahahaha! Super fun, thanks for inspiring me.

Hi Faith
I have loved being a guest designer with your team this fortnight, and I wanted to personally thank you for all the inspiration you provide, to help our female brains come up with male card! You are an inspiration!

I love your card! What a great idea to make a few! Like you, I don't often repeat cards, but this one will suit your purposes beautifully!
