Freedom of the Ride

Hi, everyone! This week's Inspiration Challenge over at Splitcoast is to find inspiration from the Playing Card Decks website....I chose this awesome deck because it's one of my fave color combos for masculine cards. (Instead of a Bicycle, I chose a Motorcycle for my card, wink!)  I began with a denim pattern from the Menswear Material Collection Paper Pad, 'King of the Road' stamp set and the following dies: Large Banners, Pierced Ovals, Ovals, Treat Tags (resized to fit the sentiment), Matting Rectangle, Sparkling Stars, and A2 Portrait Card Base with Layer (all products from Divinity Designs LLC.)

Thanks for stopping by!!

Two Wheels Move the Soul

Happy Saturday, everyone!!!  Today's Inspiration Challenge over at Splitcoast is to find inspiration from a Pinterest board of custom cakes......I chose this awesome Harley Davidson cake for inspiration to make a birthday card for my uncle. I used the North Coast Creations Custom 'Happy Birthday' Die and 'King of the Road' set, also by NCC.  The Harley was stamped onto the white circle, covered with a scratch paper mask, then flames were stenciled over it (while the circle was still in the die).  The NCC Custom 'Happy Birthday' Die and embossed banner were cut from metallic gray paper.  So that this card could be mailed with one stamp, I used a hole punch and made three black 'faux brads' as an embellishment. I feel a bit of satisfaction knowing this only took one stamp to mail....yay!!! :)

Thanks for visiting with me!

Have a wonderfully blessed holiday weekend!!
