Welcome
I made this card for my older brother who has his "superannuation card" - or should that be his super senior card?- and still frequently rides his motorbike(s) - yes, he has more than one!!
He is a great fan of CAS, so that gave me two good starting points. The motorbike was cut using silver card and an unidentified die...
I cut a piece of tan card with a stitched edge, splattered it with silver, and placed the bike on that
I embossed a M/B stitched rectangle to form a frame for the card, 'stretching' it as I went.
I sponged on some clouds using Memento Brilliance Moonliight White ink, and silver embossed the vertical greeting.
As can be seen in the above photo, the card I used also had a slight texture to it.
I finished the inside with some washi tape across the full with of the liner.
The card was appreciated, and is still on display some three months later :).

Obviously your brother liked his card - what an accolade to have it on display for such a long time.
ReplyDeleteGreat die to cut out the motorbike and love the idea of the stitching around the edge of the card. Must say though I was intrigued by the clouds, they are gorgeous - did you have a stencil of something?
Hugs, Neet xx
A super card Maxine. I love all the elements, you've combined them so well. That washi touch just finishes it. CarolG
