How is your day going? Well, I hope. Doing good here. Did my grocery shopping already this morning. So, that means I get to goof off for a bit. Yea! LOL Today, let's take a bike ride with a project made with stamps from Lost Coast Designs.
Materials List:
Stamps: Tall Trees Background and Bike Border from Lost Coast Designs
Ink: Mushroom Adirondack,Versa Fine Black
Distress Ink: Faded Jeans and Forest Moss
CS: Black; Not Quite Navy - Stampin' Up
Sheet Music Paper (or sheet music stamp would work too)
Metal disk embellishments
Ribbon Slide -Stampin' Up
Tweed Ribbon
- Make a card from Not Quite Navy CS and add a layer of black CS
- Stamp the Tall Trees stamp onto the sheet music with Mushroom ink
- Stamp one of the Bikes from the Bike Border with Black ink
- Distress with the Distress inks
- Add the stamped piece to the card base
- Add the silver metal embellishment
- Wrap the tweed ribbon around the card
- Slide the ends of the ribbon through the ribbon slide and tie in a knot
I was using the paper with sheet music as a scrap to test the Tall Trees stamp...My husband is a musician and prints lots of sheet music. And, when it does not print correctly, he hands it to me and says, "Can you use this?". Of course I can. Anyway, I liked the way the trees looked on the sheet music and just went with it. And, that is my design process for this card...in case you were wondering.

I have always loved the tandem bikes and Old time images. The music bars are a great background for the card. They suggest that music should be made for that wonderful scene. - Jim
