Tool Themed Baby Boy Overall Card

  Hello Crafty friends, as you may recall, last week I created a Baby Themed Lion Overall card for the Lori Whitlock blog hop! I had so much positive feedback that I even got a request to create another with a different theme for a little boy's 2nd Birthday! Therefore for my project today I want to share with you the same Baby Boy Overall Card file (SVG, Silhouette), in a different theme. 

The recipient loves anything to do with vehicles & tools just like his Daddy, so I came up with the idea of adding the tools from the Tool Box Father's Day A2 card file (SVG, Silhouette).

I enlarged the shirt, overalls, shoulders straps & a pocket from the overall file enough that the shirt fit fully on the page in my Silhouette program. For this card you can see I have only used one of the pockets & placed it in the centre. By enlarging my card just a little it allows more space for my tools to be placed without looking crammed. This creates a card approx 4 5/8 x 5 7/8. I will use a 5x7 envelope. 

Next I drew white stitches using a white gelly roll no.10 marker. Then I glued my overall elements except for the pocket. I then cut & put together my tools from the Toolbox Fathers Day card. I used some silver metallic cardstock as well to make them look more realistic. I did not alter the size of the tools & used the original sizes. 

I then carefully arranged my tools using the pocket as a guide before glueing everything down. I did have to snip some of the tools from the bottom so that they sat better & didn't overlap creating a bulky look in the pocket.

I finished off by glueing some buttons from my stash & adding a black enamel dot to the pliers.

I love how this turned out! I hope I have inspired you to give this a try & would love to see what other Lori Whitlock files you can combine for your creations using the Baby Boy Overall card.

Today I have a cute overall card to share with you. I started off with the A2 Baby Boy Overall Card (SVG, Silhouette). I wanted to make it a Lion theme so I have combined a couple of Lori Whitlock files. The lion is from the Father's Day Safari Jeep Box Card file (SVG, Silhouette) & the Rainbow & Heart are from the Envelope Rainbow & Hearts Box Card files (SVG, Silhouette), (SVG, Silhouette).

I reduced to size my lion & rainbow. Then adhered to my overalls. I finished off by using some buttons I found in my stash to embellish.
