Scooter Card

This scooter card with the scene set along the backyard fence was so much fun to make. I used the flowering vines to soften the wood fence background and added small touches of red to match the scooter by placing a few birds in scene. For this card I used the Rubbernecker Nested Rectangle Scallop, Scooter, Berries Branches, Spring Leaves, Tiny Flower Buds, Grass, Small Birds and Wood Fence Background.

The Fence Background Layer, Grass and Card Base

Cut an A2 sized card base using red cardstock.
Use white cardstock to cut a rectangle layer for the fence.
Secure the stamp and cardstock in the MISTI, apply dark brown ink and stamp the image.
Apply the light brown ink to the wood fence layer by swiping the ink pad directly over the paper.
Apply strips of mounting tape to the back of the fence layer and attach it to the card base.
Cut two sections of grass using green cardstock and use the scallop die to cut the bottoms to match the fence layer.
Attach the back grass section to the fence layer using double stick tape.
Apply strips of mounting tape to the back of the front grass section and attach it to the fence layer.

The Scooter

Cut the scooter sections using red, black and gray cardstock.
Assemble the tire sections and attach them together using glossy accents.
Attach the tires to the scooter base using glossy accents.
Use rolled up strips of 1/4″ double stick tape to attach the fenders to the scooter base.
Finish the scooter by attaching the trim pieces using glossy accents.

The Flowering Vines

Cut four branch sections using white cardstock and apply dark brown ink to the branches using a wet baby wipe.
Use green cardstock to cut the leaves and yellow cardstock to cut the tiny flower buds.
Place the leaves and tiny flowers face up on the molding pad. Form the leaves using the leaf tool and the flower using a small tipped stylus.
Attach the leaves and flowers to the branches using glossy accents.
Arrange the branches up one side of the fence and flowing down from the top and attach them in place using glossy accents.

Finish the Scene

Cut the small birds using red cardstock and use a black marker to color their beaks.
Apply mounting tape to the back of the scooter, tuck it in behind the front grass section and attach it to the fence base,
Apply small piece of mounting tape to the back of the birds and attach them around the scene for the finishing touch.
