Totally Tools

There are probably 2 things that I struggle to do well (in my mind anyway) when it comes to stamping. The first is to use Bold Brights and the second is to make male cards. When the new Australian catty came out and I saw the set Totally Tools, I thought that I would have at least one of these eliminated. So tonight I sat down and got out my new set and decided to make a male card. And here is the result.

Now I am just not sure about this card. I wanted to use Bold Brights because most of the tools that my DH has strewn around the sheds and garage have brightly coloured handles. And I had this idea of scattering the tools all over a piece of card and colouring the handles. But now that it is doen... I am a bit iffy!
So what do you think? I don't hate it... but I just don't love it! So if you have any great suggestions, then let me know.
Cheers
Chrissie
