That's lovely Gems. You can lightly spray your card with a fine mist sprayer to make deeper imkpressions.

Thanks for the tip Myra. On the one in the photo I used a cheap smooth white card and some of the spots poked through slightly (they embossed too much), but using a slightly textured card gives a better result, but I will try to misting technique to see what I get.
I just need to stop buying bits and pieces and actually get on with making.
Hope I'm posting this in the right place Lucille, I'm a bit confused as the "Look at what I've made" thread has had "with a free UKS template" or something like that added to it so I assume we just upload to our galleries and leave a note here for people to have a look. Please let me know if this is not correct :thanks:
Well I had to let you see this as it just goes to show just how brilliant our little machines are! I generally just use Robbie for my card making etc but this week have pushed him and myself on to a much bigger project. Take a look in my gallery to see the outdoor roof sign I have made for a new casino that is opening in the Autumn. Created in Coreldraw12 and cut on Craft Robo CC200-20. What a fab little fella he is! Comments appreciated in my gallery.

Fantastic well done, I left you a msg on your gallery too...Jo
Lovely card, it is nice when print and cut works.
Cheers Aussie Vic
I just couldn't get it to work, tried everything, read lots of tips etc.but it didn't work. I thought something had gone wrong with the CR because I had kept it on the shelf for 2 years without using it (never got anything done the first time round).
I phoned Graphtec and was told to place my printed sheet centrally on the carrier sheet and it worked first time.
I also found that you need a good bit of clearance away from the black registration dot. I tried to do some butterflies and they wouldn't cut, I deleted the one that was a bit close to the dot, and it then cut fine.
So learnt a few lessons along the way.
I've just uploaded a little mini notebook that was all designed and cut in Robo Master. Cover was also stamped, and then bound with my Bind-It-All, which has been sitting for ages gathering dust...

Rosemary- I love the little book and wow, I saw the dog in the box pop-up. So clever!
Gotta love mini books! Congratulations Rosemary, it's a good feeling when you get to use your "sins" at last :lol: I keep looking at my stacks of paper, for example, but they just seem to grow when I turn my back... hmmmmmm... Now I've made a vow to cut it all up in my robo, haha!
I've just added a wedding card made using robo. Thanks to Joyce for the lacy heart mat tutorial and I think the original design was Silene's.
You've done some lovely cards Val - I added a comment for you on one of them.
I've just uploaded another mini book, this time a phone message log one; front cover stuff designed with Robo Master and most of it cut from DIY peel offs. I rediscovered a sheet of transfer tape which certainly makes life easier lifing and sticking the fiddly bits. I'm having a lot of fun doing these little books...:D

Added a pic of a Card DD asked me to make for her Psychology teacher's Birthday that the whole class can sign, so I did the head Robo cutting mat size then put a crease in the top of the back piece so that it had a hinge and could be lifted up for the kids to sign inside. :)
Have uploaded my first 'asked' for card, made 90% with my robbie!!! am pretty pleased with my effort.
