Handmade Card and Gift Box with Stampin’ Up’s Trusty Tools Bundle
Today’s project is super special – a handmade card and gift box combo that’s sure to knock Dad’s socks off (or anyone else’s for that matter)! Using the Trusty Tools Bundle from Stampin Up, we’re going to whip up a personalized masterpiece that’ll show just how much you care.

The centerpiece of our creation is a sturdy card bearing the simple yet powerful word “DAD.” The hammer, colored with Stampin’ Blends, adds a pop of color and a touch of realism to the card. The beauty of this design is its versatility – swap out “DAD” for any sentiment to suit your occasion and recipient. The measurements for this card are:
- Card base- 5½” by 8½” scored at 4¼”
- DSP- 5¼” by 4″
- Crushed Curry- 2½” by 3¾”
- Basic White- 2⅝” by 1⅝”

But why stop at just a card? Let’s elevate our gifting game with a small wooden toolbox-inspired gift box. Crafted with care and adorned with die cuts from the Trusty Toolbox Designer Series Paper, this box is just waiting to be filled with goodies. Whether it’s chocolates, trinkets, or a gift card, this handmade box adds an extra layer of thoughtfulness to your gift. The measurements for the box are:
- Pecan Pie- 5⅜” by 3½” scored at 1″ on all 4 sides
- Pecan Pie scraps for die cutting
