I sponged smokey shadow over embossed pewter on soft stone cardstock. The stone was a little too soft, and the pewter too shiny, so the shadow ink helped tone it down. I also used my T6 Copic on the bright metal tag. The orange saddle stitch ribbon is a nod to Rigid tools (orange & black) - my DH's favorite tool brand ;) The tools are also embossed in pewter - Alli Miles, they are toooooo cute (for guy things...)
I'm lovin' this one.

Oooh, what a great guy card!! That stamp from Background Basics: Retro works perfectly for the look you were going for! Love it!
Great card! I would have never thought to use that background image for a tool box, but it's perfect! And how did I miss the hammer and wrench in Daily Designs? It' was on my wish list before, but now it is a must have!
Yep, really great man card!
I'm lovin' this, too. Guy cards are so rare and can be so hard to do. Thanks for the great ideas. I love it and I am sure he will, too. TFS.
