Chari creates a brilliant Father’s Day card with a vintage map design to get the inspiration started today! She combined Mice Tools and the map and globe from Wish You Were Here to make a very special card! You can watch the video below or click HERE to watch at our YouTube channel.

Thanks so much for watching!

Chari‘s vintage map and globe card is so perfect for letting dad know what he means to you! She arranged a pair of Mice Tools critters on the Wish You Were Here globe on a vintage style stamped background. She combined the heart-felt sentiment with Henry’s ABCs letters to send dad lots of love any time!

Be sure to watch Chari’s video to see how she created this inky vintage map!

Tammy filled a Platform Pop-Up with all the cute Mice Tools builders, and the result is so fun! She cut the Platform Pop-Up Add-On a second time with pegboard from Workshop Backdrop: Landscape before layering the Build-A-Toolbox in front. And the sentiment is so perfect to honor “a dad who can fix anything”!

Latisha‘s Father’s Day card is so amazing with a simple blue and aqua color combo! She stenciled with Tool Time Background Stencils, stamped the Mice Tools sentiment and then arranged the fun Build-A-Toolbox.

Elise made the bold Louie’s ABCs and Henry’s Build-A-Sentiment: Tools greeting the focus of her dad’s day card! She layered the message on a Bitsy Blooms background surrounded by Build-A-Toolbox tools in happy colors!

Melissa stenciled a pretty background with Sunray Background Stencil to layer behind a Workshop Backdrop: Portrait. It’s the perfect place for all the cute and handy Mice Tools critters.

Yainea “nailed it” with a layered design that is so much fun! She started with Pint-sized Patterns Summertime yellow paper and a Tool Time Stenciled panel. Then she added cute Mice Tools critters with Giant Happy Dad’s Day and a Henry’s Build-A-Sentiment: Tools pun!

Megan‘s Mice Tools scene is so cute as it fills the width of the Workshop Backdrop: Landscape! I love the Louie’s ABCs letters cut from the plaid Falling Leaves paper paired with a Henry’s Build-A-Sentiment: Tools phrase for her greeting.

Lynnette used just the “pegboard” from Workshop Backdrop: Landscape to layer all the fun Mice Tools and Build-A-Toolbox images! I love how she arranged them all around Giant Happy Dad’s Day!

Grace‘s dad’s day card is so “tool-tally awesome” with the multi-color shaker background! Using Sunrise Backdrop to create sections for the shaker is a brilliant idea. Then she added clever elements like the trophy “to the best dad” made using Build-A-Drink Cocktail Add-On and Mason Jar Add-On handles. I love the Build-A-Toolbox tools in teal and green with metallic cardstock, they are so bright and fun!

Audrey‘s “pocket full of tools” is so perfect for the dad who’s always ready to fix what needs fixing! She used Favorite Flannel paper to cut out the Money Pocket which she then filled with all the tools a handy guy needs! And then she created a fun and punny greeting with Henry’s ABCs and Henry’s Build-A-Sentiment: Tools!
