Good evening everyone, it seems so long since I posted any thing even though it has been a little over a week. It just never seems like there is enough time in the day for everything that needs to be done. I have been creating up a storm over the last few weeks since I returned from vacation. I have been working of Christmas cards and numerous other projects. One of them is this birthday card that I made for my sister to give to her husband. Beleive me when I tell you that after seeing this image at Kenny K's Krafty Girlz I had to have it for my brother-in-law. It reminded me so much of him. He is a lover of motor cycles and he is bald and he is also a wild man. That seems to cover Chico here.
My sister received the card in the mail yesterday and she loved it. The image was colored with copics E11, E13, E15, E02, E04, E41, C1, C3, C5, BV11, BV12, W3, W5, W7, R00, SPICA SILVER GLITTER PEN, glossy accents on the chrome of the bike. I embossed the black paper with the Tim Holtz Retro circles embossing folder. You can not really see it in this photo but, it is there. I used several of the Tim Holtz sprockets. I have fallen in love with the Tim HOltz products and whenever I get a chance to do some shopping I pick up a couple of items. On the inside I embossed with the Happy Birthday embossing folder from Cuttlebug, and the sentiment is . The DP papers are from last years Recollections halloween pack. I needed a purple that was not to girly. Well, that is it for this card and I hope that you have enjoyed your visit. There are a few challenges to follow.
