This patterned paper is so pretty and I wanted to use it in some way that it would show up well on a card. The Inspired by Challenge #IB301 caught my eye. Bicycle is the theme. I grabbed this paper pack and my bicycle dies and got started.
Honey Bee Stamps: Riding By stamp and die set
LaLa Land Crafts: Countryside Desinger paper pack
Acetate
Altenew: Obsidian Pigment ink pad
Simon Says Stamp: Clear acetate sheets (thick)
I made sure that the back side of the bicycle/acetate card front was nice looking so I die cut several of the pieces twice to put them on the back side of the bicycle/basket, etc. The perspective of the card is that the bicycle is high on a hill looking down at the scenery in the distance. The card is better in person with the clear front opening up to the pretty patterned paper background, but I am so pleased with it! I was inspired by the challenge's yellow bicycle and the flowers in the basket. This stamp and die set has so many uses! P.S. The sender can write a message on the back of the card.
Thanks for taking a look today!
