I usually don't struggle with masculine cards, but I made it half way through this one and hit a road block. I have spare card parts everywhere on things I tried. As luck would have it I half way through cleaning the house last evening I had an idea :). Talk about down to the wire.
The card all in all is simple, my husband loves motorcycles so the theme was easy enough to decide. I had in my large stash of paper a Designer Paper pack from Close to my Heart called Passages. I stamped the motorcycles with VersaColor Pinecone then embossed them with clear embossing powder. The wheels are just random clipart that I coated in Versamark Dazzle Champagne then embossed with clear powder and used foam tape to make a double layer.
The wheels are not glued down but can slide along the card held in place with the Seweasy floss.
Supples: Craft cardstock, Designer Paper- Close to my Heart, Stampin' Up!- Motorcycle, Seweasy floss- dark brown, misc clipart.
Cheers,
Nina
