Kool Kitty Musings: 52 Cards challenge 2013

Disclaimer

About my project supply lists:
I only use and share products that I genuinely love. The product supply lists that accompany my projects are simply intended to provide a visual overview of what I've used in case you have the same items at home or would like to add them to your own shopping list. I link to several stores in the UK and US and as of July 1, 2017 I am an affiliate member of Scrapbook.com, Amazon UK, Ellen Hutson (store retiring), and (as of April 2022) The Greetery - this means that when you click on an affiliate link and go on to make a purchase I will receive a small percentage at no cost to you. Money raised through affiliate links will go straight towards my crafting fund. Finally, please note that any products marked "(r)" are retired and may no longer be available for sale online.

52 Cards challenge 2013 - Week 48

Goodness me, there aren't many weeks left to go with this challenge, hard to imagine we've reached week 48! Eek!

This week's prompt is all about resurrecting a tool you've not used in some time!

Hm, I'm sure you're wondering what inspired this one?

Well, my ancient Craft Robo is now not only cutting, but I've managed to get that print and cut feature to work on it. So it's been dusted off and put through its paces.

Alas I think I will need to get the Silhouette blade to use with it as I can't get it to cut through Bazzill Cardshoppe after 2 cuts, and struggled to get it cut all the way through after 6, so I wonder if the other blade will handle it better. :)

But in the meantime, here's the first of my cards for this week:

Paper: Crate Paper
Dies: MFT
Punch: Martha Stewart
Other: Craft Robo, pattern wheel

ETA: Ooops! Guess who's had an embarrassing Ponglish moment? The greeting should have read Gratulacje, not Kongratulacje (as is also being used by quite a few UK Poles...) - if only I'd triple checked as it would have been easier to fit on the card too!

I needed to keep this card relatively flat as it's heading over the Poland - my cousin and his wife just announced the lovely news that they are expecting a baby in June so after making that wedding album this summer, I wanted to use the same papers and tones for this card. I spotted the 6x6 pad of Fourteen in Hobbycraft at the weekend and well, I sort of couldn't resist that purchase! Oops!
