FATHER'S DAY GIFT BOX with TRUSTY TOOLS - Stampin' Up!

Shop Stampin' Up! Here

Hi Friends!
My project today is a Father's Day box that measures  4  x  3  x  1".  I used the Trusty Tools stamp set & dies, Mini Alphabet dies, Trusty Tools DSP (Retired),  Stampin' Blends and Transparent Dots.

You can watch my Video Tutorial Here!


I started with a piece of Real Red Cardstock sized
9  x  8"
I scored the  9" side at:
1,  4,  5  and  8"
I scored the  8" side at:
1,  2,  6  and  7".
To cut and put the box together you can watch my Video Tutorial Here.
Below is a picture of how your Cardstock should look after scoring and cutting.


I attached several pieces of Trusty Tools Designer Series Paper top the box.
(2)  3 3/4  x  2 3/4" top and bottom of flap
(2)  3 3/4  x  3/4"  long sides
(2)  2 3/4  x  3/4"  short sides


I stamped the Hammer and adjustable Wrench onto Basic White Cardstock using Tuxedo Black Ink.
I cut the images out using the Trusty Tools dies.
I colored the top of the Hammer with a Light Smokey Slate Stampin' Blend.
I colored the Wrench with Dark Gray Granite


I cut the Tool Box and Handle from Real Red Cardstock and 1 Wrench from Smokey Slate Cardstock using the Trusty Tools dies.
I cut the Wrench into 2 pieces.
I attached the Handle to the body of the Tool Box with Liquid Glue.
I placed the Tools in the box and secured them with Stampin' Dimensionals.


I cut the Letters D A D from Lost Lagoon Cardstock using the Mini Alphabet dies.
I attached the letters to the front of the Tool Box with Liquid Glue and my Silicone Mat.
I attached the entire piece to the top of the box with Dimensionals.


I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White Cardstock with Real Red Ink.
I cut the sentiment out by hand and attached it inside the top flap with Liquid Glue.


I tied some Linen Thread around the right side of the hand and tied a bow.
For the final touch I added 3 Clear Transparent Dots around the Tool Box.
