Dr Digi: Birthday Bot

Hello crafty friends :o)  Today is my post for Dr Digi.  I hope you are getting house projects done and lots of crafting.

Here is a birthday card for any male species living in your home.  The image Birthday Bot was colored with my Prismacolor pencils. Not happy with the lighting, but it was getting dark.

I used metal gears and wire to give it a robot feel.  The fan-tage even has a metal look.

Here is the inside.

thanks for looking and reading :o)

Love to Craft Challenge Blog #45: Sewing Sweetness

Hello crafty friends!  I'm finally get some good use out of my Brother Scan and Cut and using files I got years ago before I even had a machine.

This project is for Love to Craft Challenge Blog, where every month is Anything Goes.

This cutting file came from The Cutting Cafe, Sewing Machine Set.  It is a set, a gift box, a card and some extra little things as gifts.

First, I made the gift box.  Even though I used the kraft paper to make the box, I add an extra layer with the design paper.. This made the box extra sturdy.   Instead of gluing two pieces together, I used the card fold layout, then glued the two pieces to the outside of the card...worked perfectly.

There's plenty of place to add goodies.  The set has spools you can make to gift ribbon or other crafty items.

I bought these tiny little spools, just because they were cute.  I used different twine and thread to wrap around them.

Finally, this is the card.  The layers build upon each other.  I even did the back of the card to make it more complete.

Here's the inside.
