I'm this week's WTUI Hostess and it's time to Fix it With Duct Tape! Hope you'll play along.
This is for my DH, my handyman and sweetheart! He loves cards with special folds and details, so I chose the Z Box Pop-Up. I made the base card from black CS. Sanded blue CS, stamped, embossed and fussy cut pocket, trimmed panel to fit and used gel pen for stitches. Adhered the panel to the front. I placed the duct tape on CS for stability, embossed and trimmed down to individual rulers. Stuck one in the pocket and used the larger ruler for the Z fold. Die cut tools from duct tape and colored handles with alcohol markers. Debossed kraft paper to mimic peg board and adhered to card interior. Added tools. Stamped main sentiment panel, fussy cut and used foam tape to pop up over tools. Followed tutorial for pop-up support. Stamped couple, colored, fussy cut and adhered to back section. Stamped sentiment on wood grain and adhered to mid section. Cut toolbox from wood grain and added tools to complete. Took almost as long to describe this as make it! TFL

These tool cards are a super clever idea! Love your Z-Box Pop-up...with its cute pocket, pegboard background, and tools. I'm working on one similar for my husband for Father's Day...will try to finish soon and post to your WTUI gallery.
