The Challenge # 30 (Take 2)

I seem to have the sort of crafting brain where if I get an idea, it won't leave me alone until I make it. This is what happened for this challenge.


I had already created a card for The Challenge but couldn't get this card design out of my head:


I won a stamp set a few weeks ago featuring this bike and could immediately picture it with the challenge colours. The stamp set is from Clearly Besotted 'Good Times'. I did decide though to use a sentiment stamp from Fiskars 'Say What?' as for some reason it seemed very French to be cycling around in-love (all I needed was an Eiffel Tower stamp in the background....). And another one layer card with no embellishments....my enamel dots/sequins will be feeling very unloved.....

Better go and pick up Max. He has been at a friends house around the corner all afternoon. We are having roast chicken for tea too and the washing needs to be brought in.....too many jobs, not enough hands!!!

Take care
Shona
