I bought these tools (www.orientaltrading.com) not knowing what I'd do with them - and when they arrived...they are big and heavy!
I stamped the sentiment on the card inside - but otherwise there is no stamping on this card - please use this as an idea if you too, bought these tool embellishments - .
This card is my creation for my dear husband from me and the children.
I drew a grid on the back of the white cardstock at 1/2" intervals, then punched with an anywhere 1/8" hole punch at every intersection to resemble pegboard.
Brads hold some of the tools in place; for other tools the brad is strictly for decorative purposes and held in place with a glue dot.
Sentiments are from 7gypsies Fatherhood stickers, mounted on 7gypsies sticker foam pieces.
card size: A6 (6-3/8" x 4-5/8"); SU caramel, black and white cardstock; 1/8" anywhere hole punch, ruler, pencil, 7gypsies foam pieces, 7gyspies stickers, 1-3/8" circle punch, black brads.

Very creative and imaginative, particularly the pegboard. This card definately inspires me for next years card. Thank you for sharing your source for the tools, I'm going there immediately to see what I need.
