Handy Birdie

I don't know the "theme" for this card yet, but I know it all started with me, who loves tools!  I have these great visions, but no brawn to finish them....so I seem to call in reinforcements, my DH or eldest son.  I had so many tools when I met my future husband, he actually thought I had been married previously.  I love tools....he love electronics!

This is Handy Birdie, one of the fun May Releases at Doodle Pantry. By participating in May's challenge, you will receive FREE the Fruitful Star.

Silver hangers (an old punch), tools (Svgcuts), Guy Stack (DCVW), ribbon, copics, stitching, Phillip's Head screw brad and my great tools!!!!!

  1. Oh my Cely this is such a great card.
    I love tools too and like you, I have ideas but no brawn (anymore). lol
    I met my husband while I had the hood of my old truck up and standing on a box to change spark plugs. He offered to help and I was insulted. lol
