This is for the Twisted Sisters challenge issued by Irishgreensue in where we were to make a crimped folded card which had to be masculine....no frilly stuff!
I don't have a crimper, so I cut a piece of white cs, folded it like you would for the crimped folded card and used my Scor-Pal to make the lines. I used SU! Totally Tools stamp set, cut out the saw and the hammer and colored with Prismacolored pencils and a sliver metallic pen. These are popped up with pop dots. I added the hardware eyelets and brads.
What do you think?

Love the grommets and the multi-directional crimping. Perfect masculine card.

How to think 'outside the crimper'. That Scor-pal is such a wonderful tool! Great guy card Kookzi! (I'll give you a break on the lack of punchin' since you did all that scoring, hammering and fussy-cuttin' your tools!)

Don't you just love that stamp set Kookzi? You've used it wonderfully and I like how you popped the tools up on dimensionals. Hey, no crimper? Looks like you utilized that high creative IQ of yours and made it work the "Kookzi" way!! LOL!! Great job and great brads!

What an awesome masculine card. The addition of the screws, nuts, and bolts are the perfect accent with the images. I thought I had a lot of scrapbooking tools, but my husband has me beat with his tools....I go to Micheal's-he goes to Harbor Freight...lol

You did a good job getting creative for your crimping! I LOVE these tools and hardware accents you used. I think my hubby subscribes to that theory--he loves his tools.
