Riding by to say Hello

I was in the mood to play with some new stamps & dies and it felt really good to do something 'pretty' and very 'girly'  LOL.

The following challenge blogs have provided inspiration for my card.
  • Happy Little Stampers May Challenge is Anything Goes with Dies 
  • Tic Tac Toe challenge (Die Cut/Flowers/Gold) 
  • Incy Wincy Designs Challenge is to use a die cut or punch
  • Just us Girls challenge is to have some flowers

The background was handmade by swiping & smooshing Purple & Yellow inks plus a touch of Gold (sadly, the shimmer of the gold does not show up very well in this photo).  

Bicycle frame die cut from yellow, wheel & handle bars from silver and tyre from black.  

Flowers & basket were stamped & heat embossed in black, hand coloured using watercolours then die cut.  Both the basket & the flowers have been attached in different layers with 3d foam.  

Sentiment 'Riding by to say hello' stamped with Black Staz On, cardfront then mounted onto Purple card base and a touch of 'bling gems' added.
