Life is like a bicycle

Hi there!

Hope you are enjoying a creative World card making day!





I also think this a good day to say thanks to all my faithful followers! Thanks for visiting, commenting, or even just for looking! So good to know you're out there... I really appreciate each and every one who came here, felt inspired by what I'm doing, and decided to "hit the follow button"!

On to the card and sentiment I have to share today...


I've used the medium sized bicycle of the set to stamp the upright panel on the left, the largest one for the focal point.



I created the first sentiment before I started the card, but in the end it just didn't look right with the more graphic feel of the card. I thought I'd share it with you any way. The second one captured the style of the card better... I think ;-)







Challenges:

that craft place  ~ make your own background
CRAFT  Challenge ~ sport (cycling)

freshly made sketches ~ sketch (rotated 90 degrees to the left)



Thanks for looking!
