Line art (I think we called it String Art in the 70s ) border, designed in Inkscape. The lines need to be drawn on the card with Robo’s pen tool before cutting the card.

Hi, thought i would give lattice another go, as i am a bit of if a novice when it comes to designing this, hope it will be of use to you.I have tried to send the coverted one to GSD file, but it says the file is to big for this type of file
to be uploaded. Perhaps Lucille can help or anyone of you ladies.
sorry ladies this file is for drawing with a pen Anne
G'day, G'day!! July already, can you believe it?!? Where has the year gone already? It also seems an age since I've been in the CR Forum - lots has happened to me this year. Unfortunately, that "lots" has not included much crafting or roboing at all. But never mind!
Since my mojo has gone walkabouts, Holmesmade (Sue) suggested we team up as she had a great idea. So without further ado, we present to you this months challenge!
Have you ever used that little black "looks-a-bit-like-a-teeny-rocket-with-a-growth" thingy that came with your Robo?!? It's called a pen-holder and amazingly, you can stick a pen into it, stick it in your Robo and DRAW designs with it!
Yes! This months challenge is based around what you can do with your pen holder. If you are anything like me, you have a huge stash of gorgeous pens just crying out to be used. So what can you come up with in terms of drawing designs. In addition to cutting designs as well if you are that clever!
But not only do we want to see your gorgeous design creations, we were also wanting to amass a collection of tips and tricks with using the pen holder. What can you suggest??
(Please note, if you suggest a great font to use, please make sure that it is a public domain font, ie. freely available. If possible, please include the full name and designer and a source for your font at the time of posting - as we all know font sites can change in a blink of an eye.)
Attached are the first two gorgeous examples (from Sue ) of what you can do using Robo to draw your design. Now over to you. Let's see your designs and your tips and tricks!
I've been absent for awhile - painting my new craft room.
Decided to change my formal living room into my dining room and
turned the dining room into my craft room.
I'm so proud - I did it "all by myself"!!
I have been burning this challenge in my mind, while I was doing all that
tedious work and this is what I came up with.
Hope it is useful.
The fonts I used were Fantasy and Gallery Normal.
The awning is pieced to get the striped edge.
I've posted the SVG and GRA files. When I have more time, I will do the GSD
and add it.
Thank you for setting us such an interesting challenge this month Linda.
I have made a line art card out of my framed saying – which I hope will still qualify? I used the saying “Home is where the heart is”.
The line art pattern on the frame/card outer was inspired by Doreen’s lovely Hounds Tooth Lattice card here. Thank you for sharing Doreen. I think mine turned out more like a tartan though.
