Today we are featuring the new, incredibly fun, Robots stamp set! There are a ton of sentiments, which are in a perfectly robotic font. :o) (All of the new goodies will be available for purchase on Saturday!)
I had never made a robot-inspired card, so I was a wee bit nervous. ;)

I had never made a robot-inspired card, so I was a wee bit nervous. ;)
Initially, my robot (a Treasure Box Designs cut file) was going to be a little less... adorable and girly. But as I dug for my plain DCWV gray metallic paper, I noticed I had a flourished version! And my favorite Blossom twine was staring at me. Instead of the screw-designed accents with the cut file, she wanted pearlescent brads. And then her iPhone needed a rhinestone 'home' button. What's a girl to do?!
I love a good pun and there are several on this new set! The sweet sentiment is heat-embossed white for a bit of texture and extra fun.
You know my love for shaped cards! I thought it would be fun to make a gear-shaped base for this little sweetheart. I used a gear cut file from the Silhouette Online Store to create my card. And I just so happened to have a flourished dark grey metallic paper... so my gear turned girly, too. (I'm hopeless.)

I studded the gear base with silver brads for additional metal elements. The heart and arrow background paper is from Authentique's Smitten collection. This card is part of my contribution for this month's I Feel the Love Project collection, where we are crafting for those less fortunate in the community of New Life Shops. Their outreach includes providing shelter, clothing, and food to those in need. I hope this brings a smile to the heart of the child who receives it! :o)
