A Birthday Card for Colby

I made this birthday card for a good friend's son.  He is turning twenty-five soon I believe and she asked a group of her friends if we would make cards because he would really get a kick out of it.  Cards for guys are so hard!  But thankfully I had something to go on - he's a gamer, so ha, I went with that theme.  I picked out my Geneneration Tech DCWV stack and used a sketch from a new sketch challenge blog I've found called The Paper Players. I didn't do any stamping, you guys know I am loathe to buy any new stamps when I can just print and cut with my Cameo.  So, this cute little robot you see is a Silhouette image, and here's something new - I used the sketch feature to transform it from a solid robot to the sketch one you see here.  That tool is really, really, cool and I'm getting excited thinking about all of the things I'm going to do with it.   But you want to see the card right?  Here it is:



Here is the inside of the card - you know I like to finish them.  I just need to add a small gift card and it's all ready to go!
