Design:
Outline your design process
For the Design, I went with something simple, and put my mom's name on it because I wanted to make it for her.
What tools/commands did you use
I used Inkscape and Makercase.com to make the box. I went to Makercase and entered the specifications I wanted and then went into Inkscape to add my mom's name.
What techniques did you use
I didn't really use a technique.
Describe your work-flow
This project was quite short, so the project took only about 10-20 minutes.
Mistakes made
I forgot to change the color of the box outline, and almost cut without doing that. If I hadn't then my mom's name would have been scored and not rastered.

Things done well
I started out behind, because both Autodesk and Inkscape weren't working for me, but started to catch up and get slightly ahead.
