HB2U robot boys birthday card


Good Morning all, another week gone, where do they go so fast? A few snow flurries down here, but don't expect we will have much, hopefully you don't either, stay warm.

So today im sharing the second card ive made with my robot dies, its for a young teenage boy, so i used text speech for the happy birthday to you, plus it fitted on the card better! 



5x5 grey pearl cardblank, i then embossed the white card with a cog design.  I built the robot from grey pearl, blue, gold & red mirror card from my bit box.  White & grey circle frames offset, 3 blue eyelets set into the frame. Cogs then cut from the same colours of mirror card.


Close up, the blue mirror on the robot is mottled, not sure why but think it kind of gives a distressed look, after all this is one hard working robot! 😊



Just showing the mirror card better.



While  i was making this and the last robot card i kept thinking i could do with some 'nuts & bolts' dies, often thought that in the past when making male cards too, have you seen any in your crafty travels or do you think you would love to have some nuts and bolts dies?, as a friend asked Robert Addams if he would consider making some, if enough of us ask him then possibly he would.  So if you think you would use them then dropping him a line would be great. Link to his website below




Thank you for looking and all your comments last week.  I hope you all have a good weekend and keep warm.  Hugs Emma

Another one of your fabulous cards Emma. What a good idea to e mail Robert Addams to see if he would do dies in nuts and bolts, they would come in so handy with a lot of male cards.

Great male card Emma, loving the little robot chap. Think the nuts and bolts die idea is great. We had a little snow too on Saturday not something we normally get here, but didn't settle. Love Kirsty. x
