I die-cut the bike from mixed media paper and watercoloured with Distress Inks. I created the background using the Acetate Smooshing technique and the same colours. I stamped the sentiment (Signature Greetings - Memory Box), and then added a little more ink to ground the bike. Very simple card that was fun to make!

I LOVE your card, fab colours and a wonderful bike. Thanks for the inspiration, too. I was looking for a bike in my files today, for a great nephew, but couldn't see it done. Now I can. Thanks x
Cute bike, Loll, and I do love these colors together! It's really pretty in the smooshy, splattery background, and the scripty sentiment looks like I might need to add the set to my wish list. You can never have too many sentiments!
Love this! The colour combo looks lovely, and I do like a little bit of acetate smooshing. Cute bicycle die too xx
This is so delightful and very artsy, Loll. The colors are soft and look great smooshed together.
Ohh I love that background you made. Fabulous use of the colors to tie into the bicycle. Sweet summer ride.
I love pink and yellow - what a pretty bike, Loll!

This is a darling bicycle with a sweet basket, Lolly! Love the background and these pretty colors!
What a delightful card, Loll! I like the fun background you gave that cute little bicycle!
Love this! Such a beautiful background and a great bicycle die - it reminds me of my childhood bike - pink with a wicker basket!
