Hey everyone! Roree here with today’s Make It Monday post. Our next show is in Orlando, FL on April 27-28. Stamp & Scrapbook Expo will be teaching four “Latest & Greatest” workshops at this show: Card Making, Cool Tools, Scrapbooking, and Stamping. Today I am going to be creating with new products from our Latest & Greatest: Cool Tools class: We R‘s Hand Tool Kit.
If you take the class, you will receive the Hand Tool Kit which contains detail scissors, a bone folder, a craft knife, a paper piercer/stylus, and a mini rotary cutter.
With the tools in the kit, I created this card:
First, I used the mini rotary cutter to create the mounds for my flower garden.
I placed the paper panel on my glass cutting mat and with a little pressure and a quick curving motion, I had two wavy mounds. I flipped one of the panels over and adhered them together on my background panel.
Next, I cut out some flowers and leaves using the Quarter Flowers with Leaves die set from The Stamps of Life along with a few stems using the details scissors from the kit.
Then, I arranged the flowers and leaves on my card base.
I used the paper piercer in the kit to punch holes in the flower centers to add some hand stitching.
At the last minute, I decided to square up my panel before adding it to my card.
The tools helped me add some fun, personal touches to my card.
It is a great kit of essential tools every crafter should have in their stash.
This Latest & Greatest: Cool Tools workshop featuring We R‘s Hand Tool Kit will also be taught at our upcoming shows in Milwaukee, and Puyallup. We would love to see you there!
I hope you enjoyed today’s Make It! Monday project. Thanks so much for stopping by!
Would love to see this rotary cutter in action!
I have a rotary cutter for paper never think to use it because I think it is awkward to use. This looks like something that is easier to fit in the hand and easier to control..Looking forward to seeing it demonstrated.
Will this be offered at the Duluth Expo as a class?
Those tools are fabulous!!!
