All my brother wanted for his birthday was some money for a road bike, so this was the card I made for him. It was inspired by a picture that I recently saw on Pinterest. It was very quick to make. I started with a 4 1/4" x 11" piece of fine linen cardstock, scored at 5 1/2". I stamped the background with fine linen ink and the Papertrey Ink Background Basics: Farm & Barn stamp set.
This adorable bike, by Cali Arroyo, was cut at 4.2" with my Silhouette. Isn't the fine detail amazing? I just trimmed off the front half of the bike.
The sentiment is from Papertrey Ink's Big Birthday Wishes stamp set.
