This is a carving I did for a letterpress coaster swap. I haven't gotten the coasters yet, but I'll try to post a photo when I do. I like the vintage bicycle-- although my husband pointed out that the spokes are missing near the bike chain. sigh. Put this card together while visiting my friend, Deedee Stroud, in Albuquerque. She thought of using the gear stickers (made using one of her punches and the xyron sticker maker). I used a couple different color cardstocks in yellow and orange tones. I think I like orange better. I distressed the tags lightly by brushing with an antique linen distress inkpad. The strip of green was embossed with the Cuttlebug gear embossing folder.
Even withthe spokes missing it's still a cool image! I like the orange better too!
