Hello my crafty friends,

The new mini catalog is out and SALE-A-Bration is Back!!

I am loving this new catalog, and the Trusty Tool bundle was a must have of mine.

Not only because we can preorder it (perk of being a demonstrator) or because it had a matching DSP (sale-a-bration.)

But because of the Men I have in my life. 

They are all handy men, and a lot of the tools in this bundle are the most used by them.

But I decided to take it up a notch, making a colorful card.

I Made this card back in November for a Swap I decided to participate in. I have to make them in advance because I have to mail them out, but this time I decided to drive up to Dallas and take it myself.

So I hope you get inspired by this card, and if you make it, please tag me in your picture or post. I would love to see what you made.

I DO NOT provide PDF’s, for any of my videos. 

However, I will give you the measurements but not instructions. If you would like to know how I achieved a certain technique I suggest you watch the video.
