Robotz Cricut Happy Birthday Gears Card

When this cartridge came out I had to have it RIGHT AWAY!! That was me being crazy, because I haven’t used it to make a robot until now. When will I learn? (Uh…never.) This is a cute cart, but I’ve found I don’t have a lot of need to make robots. Weird. Who knew? LOL. I did use the font to make my nephew a word book. I was just thinking … maybe I should make a little 3D robot army. This cart has a 3D selection of robots. Maybe I could train them to clean the house and bring me stuff. Like lunch…and … more Cricut cartridges. 😀

In this awe inspiring photo…I welded some gears together. 😛 There are some gears on the Robotz cart, but they are suprisingly hard to find. Isn’t that weird? I figured I’d find different shaped gears on every page. That would be a “no”. I found these on page 57 and only 2 out of that bunch were welded. What up, Provo Craft? Anyway, I welded them with my Gypsy. I had plans for a more involved card, but…plans are made to be creatively adjusted? crushed? bent? broken? nah, that’s not it … well, you get the point.

I LOVE that white ink from Stampin’ Up. It doesn’t dry fast though. The numbers paper is from Cosmo Cricut Cricket (gosh, I almost forgot how to spell cricket, LOL!). I love using those Honeybee scissors. They are so sharp and do a great a job! You NEED a Zig 2 Way Glue pen…well, not really, but I do use them all the time. They’re really helpful! The ribbon is from PaperTreyInk.com. The card sentiment is from Stampin’ Up “Think Happy Thoughts” stamp set.

Now I can say, I’ve made a robot with my cartridge. 😉 Time to move on to finishing a Mother’s Day card…fast!
This card is SO CUTE! I love the robot and the idea to weld gears is absolutely great. Thanks for the idea. I DO have many.,many pix that can be scrapped with this cart so it really was a NEED vs. a want. Weelll, it might be hard to convince DD of that, but that’s why I worked~to afford cartridges when I want/need them. Now, to get the scraproom back together so that I can use the cart…
Thanks Dori and Flowerdisco!
I look forward to seeing what you both make with Robotz! I am going to make a 3D one soon. I think that’s a cool feature! 😀

Joy, I love your card and your houndstooth paper too and I love the Robotz cart…as a matter of fact I made a project with it
( it’s not revealed yet though, lol).
Cute card Joy! I really want this cartridge too. I don’t know why. Its just cute. My boys aren’t even into Robots. 🙂
it’s so cool Joy!
I still haven’t been able to find one of the large zig pens. just the little ones!
Love your Robot card, always fun to see something that I can use for one of my boys.
Thanks everybody! It is nice to have something that can make a good boy card!
