Robotastic

It's all about robots, dinosaurs, and superheroes with my nephews. Since they love to get mail, I often send them cards that speak to their interests. This time, I am going with Robots using The Alley Way Stamp set Bot Time. I wanted to create something that looked mechanical. My color scheme came from The Alley Way Stamps challenge blog. I was inspired by the black, white, and orange colors in one photo. At first, I stamped everything in black. Then in the border, I added blocks of orange. I then added different elements from the stamp set, and kept with the orange. 

The pop of blue is a nod to another of The Alley Way Stamps photos for inspiration. Finally, I inked the edges in an orange shade to give the card some depth - I almost felt like a it was a workshop with dust and dirt and grease.
