A Male Birthday Card

Here is the card I made for one of my nephews who
celebrates his birthday today.
For a change, I used the de-bossed side of the grey card and matted onto black card.
I then cut the tools in silver mirri and then red card for the handles.
Lastly, I added the sentiment and home made card candi.

The products I have used are:-
Tools die - purchased from eBay
Docrafts - Xcut Embossing Folder - Wicker
Craft Essentials Creative Dies - Happy Birthday
Home made card candi
Challenges entered:-

    Who would have thought a wicker background would look so fantastic for a masculine card, Janice? But even more, I am in awe of those tiny little tools, and that you not only cut them out once, but twice, AND adhered the tiny orange handles and grips so expertly. It’s a wonderful card that your nephew will enjoy receiving. REALLY awesome design!

    I'm sure your nephew will be impressed with this great guy card. What could be better than a card with tools. Love the background and design. Thanks so much for joining us at the Watercooler Wednesday Masculine challenge this week Janice.

    That's an inspired way to make the background to hang the dear little tools on. I know they are not supposed to be cute but they are! x AlisonC Snippets GD
