Amy Design Bike for The Paper Players Challenge



Hi everyone!

Nance has a fun theme challenge this week at The Paper Players!



While I do have a few stamps and even a bicycle die, I decided to go with my friends fun BIKER die from Amy Design. She also has some awesome embossing folders that went well for this design. The cool flames and diamonds are both from Darice. Why is it always more fun to play with other people's schtuff?



I cut out the motor cycle in black foil, and the wonky stitched rectangle in a orange shiny paper I found at our local craft store. The circles are cut out with My Favorite Things zig zag stitched circles. I used the sentiment from Stampin Up's Endless Birthday Wishes, and stamped it in black on the banner from the Avery Elle Wonky stitches die set.






I really had lots of fun with this card...masculine cards are not usually my fave to make!
