Bicycle Birthday




(Scroll on down to see my For Your Inspiration post for today.)
My son loves to bike for transportation and loves the big city life, so he can use this...along with the metro and his feet...as his way to get around. I needed a birthday card for him (he's my oldest and turns 28 on Saturday), so Korin's layout for the SCS Sketch Challenge was perfect to create this little summer scene. The clouds are die cut from felt. This is also for Crazy 4 Challenges to make a masculine card and for the Color Throwdown Challenge to use daffodil, tangerine and kiwi colors and for the CCEE challenge to include a kite on a card.
What did I use:
STAMPS: In the Park (Taylored Expressions), Big Wish (Verve) - sentiment
PAPER: A Walk in the Park by Echo Park, White
INK: Memento Tuxedo Black
ACCESSORIES: Cloud & grass border Die-Namics by MFT, Maya Road kraft mini tag, Baker's twine, Copics, felt.

Totally cute card, Wanda :) Love your son's desire to ride and walk for transporation. I'm sure he 'll love the card. You can also enter it into this week's CCEE challenge to have a kite on your card.

This card just makes my smile Wanda!! I love the summery colors with your bicycle all ready for a relaxing picnic!! Super charming!! My son's is an avid biker also. Scary for a mom amidst all those big cars, but he loves the exercise.
