Bike Riding

Good Morning Stampers!!!
Bike Riding is what we are doing this morning! We’ve all done it I’m sure as a kid, so now you can do it on paper! This bundle is shown on page 20 of the new annual catalog, it comes with 24 stamps and 15 framelits to die cut the stamped images out with. With the bike you have so many options, you can make the bike any color you want. You could even put together your dream bike!
My card base for this card is Melon Mambo 8.5 x 5.5 with a layer of Basic Black cardstock 5 x 3.75″. I then added a piece of Wood Textures Designer Series which was just a smidgen smaller than the 5 x 3.75″ basic black. The bike is stamped in Melon Mambo ink and die cut along with the tires. Then the coolest thing is that you can stamp your seat, handle bars and pedals any color you would like. Mine are stamped in Basic black, and the outside part of the wheels are in Basic Gray. You will see in the stamp set that you can add books, flowers or the little doggie to the basket. I stamped my little Rover in Soft Suede and added a Melon Mambo neck scarf and sat him in the basket which is stamped in Soft Suede. All of these come with framelits too so that you can die cut them. I then used the sentiments and balloons from the Happy Birthday gorgeous set that is on page 77 in the new catalog. This set also comes with the Happy Birthday die,, which you will want to bundle this set to save the 10%. I stamped the balloons in Melon Mambo ink and punched them out with the balloon punch, the one is attached flat and the other I added a stampin dimensional. I then added a piece of Melon Mambo Bakers twine. The sentiment is stamped in Basic Black ink. Isnt this a fun card, and with so many options. It would be a great stamp set for children and men too!!!.
