I got this new Memory Box die the other day and just couldn't wait to make a card with it. I decided NOT to stress myself over trying to do all the distressing, and just made more of a classic type card. I love the black, white, and red combo so went with those colors.
I really would love to try and ride one of these but figure I'd need the hospital alerted and also have an ambulance on stand-by! Think it'd still be fun though. I embossed the white panel behind the bicycle with the CB Distressing embossing folder (hey, I really DID distress on it! LOL) and the sentiment is from CTMH Memories.
The sketch I used (very literally) is from Sketch Saturday and I'll enter this in their challenge.
Thanks for stopping by...........

Wow, fantastic card! Love the simplicity and touch of red! Good luck riding the bike!
ReplyDeleteWonderful CAS card. Love the colors. Thankfully, this was a bit before my time :-)
ReplyDeleteWhat a delightful card, Lynn! Love the color combo with just a pop of red. 30 years ago,my husband had one of these and I can assure you, they were extremely difficult to ride. Not so much the actual riding them, but getting on and off the seat presented huge problems. lol
ReplyDeleteWonderful card Lynn, I like the new die the spots and the red makes it pop.

ReplyDeletelove this card lynn and the bike die is great-it would be fun riding one of those
ReplyDeleteLove the red, white and black combo. Placing the bike on the white really makes it stand out. You are more adventurous than me, I wouldn't even contemplate getting on it.

I'm having fun envisioning the emergency preparedness team waiting for you to ride, lol :) Sounds like the tactics we use when we're about to bathe a cat!
ReplyDeleteI love the classic colours, and that die is stunning!
Oh Lynn, I just LOVE this! What a wonderful and fun die, and the papers and colors you used look perfect! Riding this contraption isn't difficult at all - it's getting on & off that sucker that's the hard part! LOL

ReplyDeleteGreat card, Lynn. I also love that color combo. Your sentiment is perfect. Terrific die, but I'm with you, I'd definitely have to make a trip to the ER if I even tried to get on one of those things.

I can see you pedaling down the street on this bad boy! Now that would be a pretty picture and maybe a little distressing to Jim!
ReplyDeleteI really like the design of the card and the colors and patterns work so well together.
Love this Lynn, the colour combo makes the cycle even more prominent. Super die cut.
