So I started to clean, and I found an old {worthless} comic book, I was about to toss it in the recycle bin but then thought &#8220;Hey! I can make something with this!&#8221;</p>

<p>I know these cards will not win any awards but I think the best way to break through a creative rut is to push right through it, well, it sure beats cleaning anyway! I used my <a href="http://www.craftedge.com/index.php?rfid=4291406&amp;ref=c05943995fc9e9df4a0b0672d997478d">Cricut and scal software</a> to cut the solid robot out of the Cricut Cuttables stamp material {be sure to use a brand new sticky mat and follow the directions on the package!} using the free font<a href="http://www.dafont.com/efon.font"> EFON</a>. I welded the head to the body with a rectangle in scal. I used some cute stamps from Basic Grey and a diamond plate embossing folder on the other. I love the screw top brads, they are by Creative Imaginations but other companies have them too. Well the present in the photo is for a birthday party we are rushing off to and one of the cards is too!</p>
<p>Thanks for listening to my crafting rut rant, til next time happy crafting!</p>
