My past does NOT include bicycles this old - however I do love them. Can you image how much fun it must have been to ride one! It was probably a little tricky getting on it, but once you did I'm sure they were fun.
This is a digital image that I found on Beyond the Fringe blog by Carmen. She does beautiful work. The sentiment is from a set from CTMH. I had this card pictured in my mind and it actually came out very close to what I was thinking. Maybe next time I'd put the sentiment directly under the bicycle and scoot it over to center it on the card though. I also started to color just the seat of the bicycle but thought that the ribbon and the rhinestones picked up enough color.
Thanks for stopping by.....................

I have always wanted to ride one of these. Your card is beautiful. I especially love the bow!
Perfect sentiment for this image! I like the clean, and crisp color combo you used.
What a fun and cute card Lynn. The sentiment fits your image so well and I have to agree with you that it might be a tad hard to get up on the bike.
Fantastic card, Lynn! I love it as is. I have ridden one of these and they are extremely hard to control. lol At one time, I owned a bicycle shop and our logo was one the these "penny-farthings", as they were called. We found it at a trade show and bought it to have at the shop. One ride was enough!
Such an awesome image... and I love the sentiment and the backing paper looks perfect. So does the ribbon.
