Here's what I made for today's blog hop using 
"You're the Man"
Cardz TV Stamps

now normally I don't enjoy making Masculine cards

because I can't add all the things I love like crinkle ribbon, bows and bling

but this card I had a blast with

I started with an a2 base pure poppy, then a mat of vintage cream

then true black. and kraft, photo finish strip die all from Papertrey Ink

to make the kraft look like peg board

I used my scal program and sure you could do this on your gypsy,
cricut craftroom or on you silhouette software

I am a made a little circle .25" and did a copy then auto fill

next I made a rectangle 5 x 3.75
and a moved it over the circles until all the edges were even

then I deleted all the circle outside of the rectangle
 love the way it came out

Next I cut out the tools from a file "Tools" from

My Scrap Chick

now to make the metal parts of the tools is really an easy process

ink them with versa mark then silver embossing powder
and heat emboss repeat that 3 times

Now for the sentiment &  faces (which is my favorite part)

I stamped the glasses and mustaches with memento tuxedo black ink

 cut them out by hand and added them to the tools with some google eyes

in the corners took some red brads and sanded them so the metal would show through
the inside

 

Now your next stop
