Love the robot!! I have a "few" of those unloved stamp sets, too :)
I really like that you are inspiring using the "pushed to the back" stamp sets. I have way too many of those, that are just screaming to be put in the spot light. Thank you for that "challenge". The Build-A-Robot stamp set is so adorable. I really like the colors and techniques you put into this card!!! I am envisioning a pink, cutesy girl one.. hmmmmm .. ;) Thank you Vicki!!!!
Thanks for the great card idea! I am in the midst of planning a robot party for my son and was thinking about how to make the invitations. This gives me the inspiration I needed! :)
I love the crimped stripes. I'm always looking for creative ways to use the crimper. Mine is one of those dust collecting items... and I inherited it from another paper crafter who never used it!!!
