Bicycle Silhouette

Making this bicycle silhouette scene card was lots of fun and I love how it turned out.  Sadly, I had a hard time getting good pictures to show off how beautiful the Carta Bella Home Again designer paper is.  Originally, I made the scene with all white images and it was impossible to photograph.  I hate it when that happens.  So I decided to tuck in some green foliage and purple flowers to the basket and grass line and exchanged the white butterflies with purple butterflies.  In the end I really liked it better with the changes. For this project I used the Rubbernecker Bicycle, Deckle Frame, Small Ivy, Tiny Flower Buds, Small Butterflies and Best Friends sentiment set.

The Card Base and Deckle Frame

• Cut an A2 sized card base and a 5.50″ x 4.25″ piece of designer paper.
• Apply ATG adhesive to the back of the designer and attach it to the card base.
• Cut the deckle frame using white cardstock and stamp the sentiment using Nocturne ink. 
• Apply strips of mounting tape to the back and attach it to the card base.

The Bicycle and Basket of Flowers

• Cut the bicycle and basket using white cardstock.
• Attach the bicycle sections together using glossy accents and attach it to the card base using pieces of mounting tape..
• Cut the small ivy using green and white cardstock.
• Attach the ivy sections to the back of the basket using glossy accents.
• Use white and purple cardstock to cut the tiny flowers.
• Form the flowers using a small tipped stylus and molding pad.
• Attach the flowers to the ivy using glossy accents.
• Apply mounting tape to the back of the basket and attach it to the card base.

The Ivy Flower Border and Butterflies

• Tuck the ivy sections in behind the deckle frame and attach to the card base using glossy accents.
• Attach the tiny flowers to the ivy border using glossy accents.
• Cut the butterflies using purple cardstock .
• Attach pre made white Nuvo Crystal Drops to the butterflies using glossy accents.
• Finish by attaching the butterflies to the scene using glossy accents.
