Fathers Day Card using Karen Burniston's Tool Box Pop-Up

 Hello Crafty Friends and welcome. I have another card using the dies from Karen Burniston's new July 2026 release. For this card, I made a Fathers Day card using the new Tool Box Pop-Up along with the Tool Charms and the new Tool Time Sayings stamp set. 

I started by making a 5 x 5" card base from black cardstock. I added some silver metallic cardstock, then added some dark grey woodgrain cardstock on top. 

I die cut the tool box from smooth white cardstock. I ran it through my die cut machine with the embossing plates to make the woodgrain on the tool box pop. I coloured the box in with Copic markers, then I glued the pieces together. 

I used the rectangle die to cut out a black rectangle, then I used Karen Burniston's Bouquet Sayings stamp set to add the "Happy Fathers Day" sentiment. I used VersaMark Ink and silver embossing powder so it would go along with the tool theme. 

I glued the box onto my card using Lineco Neutral pH adhesive in a fine tip bottle. Then I got started on making all the neat tools to go on my card. 

I used the Tool Charms and the tools that come with the Tool Box Pop-Up (which are mirror images!). I cut the handles from various scraps of cardstock I had on hand. 

I used the scissors and pencil from the Office Charms die set. I made the ruler by hand. I also created a little "box" using red and black cardstock, like a little tray to hold your small bits and pieces. 

I then stamped another sentiment, this time from the new Tool Time Sayings using Detail Black Ink and white cardstock. I die cut another label, so there was a place to sign the card. 

For the front of the card, I added some lighter wood grain cardstock, then used MFT - Pegboard Coverup die to add a peg board as my background. I made more tools using scraps of cardstock and adding detail to them with Copic markers. I stamped another sentiment from the Tool Time Sayings stamp set and added it to the centre of the card front. 

I gave this to my kids to sign and give to my husband for Father's Day and he absolutely loved it! Thank you so much for stopping by. Below is a list of the supplies I used to make this card. Happy Crafting!
