Good Morning everyone
The 2nd card i made for my dads birthday is a building block fold using rat stamps from Katzelkraft which i teamed up with a pipe die to give the feel of them living among the pipes where its nice and warm for them😀
I made my base card from Kraft card and matted woodgrain paper onto green paper and then the base. I die cut the pipe die several times from gold satin cardstock and built it up over the card, i used one whole one in the middle and chopped up another for smaller pieces that i added on.
Screw heads die cut from orange mirri card and added to the corners
I watercoloured the rats with green and orange distress inks, cut out and arranged into place.
Showing it opening up, i used alpha dies on green paper and orange mirri card to spell out dad on one side of the block and die cut mini tools from the gold satin for the other side. Die cut sentiment from more gold satin to finish
showing the other side of the blocks and panel
I had 3 rats left so made this card for my box
A5 kraft card base. I die cut the pipes from a mat gold this time. Sizzix birthday sentiment die cut from orange mirri card to finish.

pipe & tool dies
